The 2020 edition brings together a typically wide variety of constituents – an exploration of music from Ireland, Scotland and Wales, a feature of Leoš Janáček’s amazingly original output and a celebration of Beethoven in his 250th birthday year. The Festival’s advocacy of contemporary music continues with a corpus of exciting commissions from Tarik O’Regan (composer-in-residence), Martin Butler, Gary Carpenter, Amelia Clarkson, Ninfea Cruttwell-Reade (the first Presteigne ‘Evolve’ composer), Joseph Phibbs, Emma-Ruth Richards and RPS Emerging Composer, Robin Haigh. Supporting events include three outstanding Irish films, talks from Peter J Conradi, Stephen Johnson, Nicholas Murray and Fiona Sampson, an exhibition in association with the Sidney Nolan Trust and, for the third consecutive year, the popular Presteigne Open Studios weekend. A starry artist line-up sees the return of Festival favourites Clare Hammond, the Carducci Quartet and Amy Dickson, whilst those appearing for the first time include Chloë Hanslip, the Bath Camerata and Jonathan Gunthorpe. I very much hope you’ll be tempted to join us in Radnorshire’s favourite Festival town for a truly mouth-watering menu of events. George Vass, artistic director • Your local online wine merchant.
