The elements that make the festival what it is of course continue to be honoured, but as we enter our fifth decade we hope fully to further excite new audiences, present wonderful new artists and ensembles, and to push the boundaries of what we do. We hope you will join us on the journey.
Rather remarkably this year marks my 10th at the helm. All I can say is that I must be having fun as I genuinely haven’t noticed the passage of time! As on previous occasions you’ll find an ‘Artistic Director’s Trail’ inside and I hope a goodly number of you will dip into this as it describes Petworth’s own form of ‘cultural tapas’: many, many different and fine tastes across the festival, all of which – to continue the culinary metaphor – are well worthy of Michelin stars.
Bon appetit! Stewart Collins Artistic Director
