It comes not on leaden wings. Upon the long night of our struggle, " the dawn came up like thunder." Between the promise and the realisation of Peace, there has been no prolonged interval. We are quietly and surely moving into the time when the sword shall be beaten into a ploughshare ; into the realisation of the poets dream : "Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle flags were furled, In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the World; There, the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe, And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapt in universal law." This book is dedicated to our heroes " who fought and conquered and died, without knowing that they had conquered," and, equally, to their brave comrades who fought and conquered and lived to return to us.

For more than three weeks in August, Scotland’s capital hosts an unparalleled celebration of the performing arts and becomes an annual meeting point for people of all nations. Every year the International Festival presents a curated programme featuring the finest performers and ensembles from the worlds of dance, opera, music and theatre. www.eif.co.uk #edintfest Yuja Wang and Gustavo Dudamel with the Los Angeles Philharmonic © Ryan Buchanan Usher Hall © Ryan Buchanan 3 In August 2019, the Edinburgh International Festival reached exceptional attendance numbers, enjoyed strong donor and partner support, delivered a balanced budget and, of course, brought unforgettable performances to the Festival City. Alongside our sister festivals we proudly maintain a platform for creative expression completely unrivalled anywhere in the world, both in scale and diversity. Behind the scenes, we endeavour to be good citizens of our city, our country and the world; to offer a view that is resolutely international; to give artists the best possible conditions in which to perform; to provide a positive, professional and caring workplace; and to offer residents and visitors to our city inspiration, motivation and fun in a world very much in need of all three. The 2019 programme was marked by strong contributions from all five of Scotland’s national companies, a spectacular residency by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the final chapter of our acclaimedRing cycle, a celebration of the work of Sir James MacMillan, and a new season of globally and socially connected performances entitled You Are Here.
