But following this anniversary there is some sad news, with the recent passing of our President, Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon. Her energy, commitment and enthusiasm from the outset and throughout the evolution of the Festival have been fundamental to its success. The Duchess of Kent and I have seen the Festival grow from humble beginnings to an internationally renowned arts festival, having faced and overcome many obstacles along the way. Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon, can be justly proud of the Festival’s achievements. Her legacy must surely be a Festival that continues to flourish as we embark on the next forty years. www.newburyspringfestival.org.uk 1 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 2 Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon MBE Founder and President 1935 - 2019 2 box office 0845 5218 218 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 3 The Festival’s founder and president, Jeanie Countess of Carnarvon was a great and much loved lady who we will always remember for her inspirational support of Newbury Spring Festival and her gentle and gracious presence at so many events over the years. Her son Lord Carnarvon pays tribute to her with the following words. My darling mother’s lifelong interest in the arts and music started in her childhood in the USA.

  • Summer Camps, Institutes & Programs
    2021 Guide to SUMMER CAMPS, INSTITUTES & PROGRAMS November 2020 Editor’s Note 2021 Guide to Summer 2021 promises to be intense. By then, having spent well over a year in a holding pattern while waiting (hoping, praying) for COVID-19 to dissipate, artists and their audiences will be hungry for the opportunity to perform, rehearse, teach, and/or listen to live music in a SUMMER CAMPS, shared environment. Fortunately, there are many opportunities being planned, and our annual INSTITUTES & PROGRAMS guide to summer camps, institutes, and programs lists nearly 300 possibilities. Keeping in mind that we assemble the information from these organizations months in advance to help you plan your summer experience, it’s always a good idea to check their individual websites before plunking down $5000 to sing in the South of France or, at the other end of the range of choices, signing up for a tuition-free youth orchestra in Los Angeles. As ever, the options are wide and enticing. As an avid (amateur) chorister, I’ve been eyeing Berkshire Choral International, which traditionally offers several major choral works to sing during specific time periods in specific locales with different conductors: Verdi in Italy, Poulenc in France, Janáček in the Czech Republic. The options for pros and/or serious students of the artform are also plentiful. Some programs specialize in strings only (check out Your Body is Your Strad—no audition required), some in bel canto (in Florence, no less!), some in marimba (Portugal), some in all disciplines (big guns, like Tanglewood and Aspen). There’s a two-week young women’s (ages 14-19) composers’ camp in Pennsylvania, a bilingual Thanksgiving camp in Québec, and we’d be remiss if we didn’t include the Beethoven Bootcamp in Virginia.

By 8a.m. the decision had been made to move as many stalls as possible into the Church, only recently altered to accommodate such events. The opening ceremony was performed by our very own 'Lord of Ugborough'. Unfortunately a couple of activities had to be cancelled for safety reasons, but the Stilt walker who couldn't stilt walk brought an amusing & novel character puppet & the Juggler who couldn't juggle did close up magic instead. Most of the stalls did good business and many people remarked on the very happy atmosphere regardless of the weather.

  • The Dartington 'Experiment'
    History of the People Associated with Dartington This document, put together by Ivor Stolliday, gives an overview of the numerous people who have come to Dartington to live and work, and contribute to the work of the Trust. ‘A Salon in the Countryside’ Orbits and constellations George Bernard Shaw knew Dartington well, and wrote of it as ‘a salon in the countryside.’ Whether or not he meant it as a compliment, it stands as an apt summary of its early years. It has changed, as all things must, but it remains a place hospitable to the assembly of talents, creativity and energy. Dartington Hall has long invited, attracted, encouraged and supported those who show talent and creativity. This has been true since Dorothy and Leonard Elmhirst began their remarkable experiment at Dartington in 1925, and continues today. The Fellowship Programme is a major - and the most recent - manifestation of that continuing impetus. Whilst Dartington has the structure and the corporate organisation essential for a charity of some scale, owning land, property and other assets, its true legacy and genius is individual rather than corporate. In most cases, its projects, ventures, businesses and activities have happened and been supported because interesting individuals came with good ideas. In addition, there is a history of direct support for those who had some important work to do, yet had neither the resources nor the environment in which to do it. The principle of recognising the individual, and of giving support where possible, remains one of the elements of the Trust’s mission, as stated in the Aims of the Trust.

  • Restrung New Chamber Festival: an Exploration of Contemporary String Practice
    Restrung New Chamber Festival: An Exploration of Contemporary String Practice Danielle Sarah Bentley BMus MCI School of Music and Sound Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Queensland University of Technology (2011) 1 Keywords New music, classical music, string music, hybrid arts, Brisbane, Queensland, festival, Restrung New Chamber Festival, creative industries, practice-led research 2 Abstract The Restrung New Chamber Festival was a practice-led research project which explored the intricacies of musical relationships. Specifically, it investigated the nature of contemporary string practice, with “New music” at its core. For the purposes of this project, “New music” will be defined in terms of representing a “global sonorous space” (Nancy 2007:12), which Hulse describes as “a spectacular comingling of styles and an unprecedented explosion of creative possibilities” (Hulse n.d.:2). Approaches to staging such an event are contextualised through a comparative analysis with relevant Australian and European festivals. The Restrung model derived inspiration from both art music and popular music festival models, in several aspects. One strategy was to engage audiences through combinations of musical, visual and spatial features. Another strategy was to encourage interaction by audiences with installations, workshops and forums. Restrung represents a new and distinctive model which presented art music within an immersive environment. This exegesis presents an evaluation framework which investigates the relationship between curatorial input and the experiential qualities of the festival. The context of an overview of trends in arts festival curation informs the discussion, as well as approaches to identifying new and receptive audiences. It is expected that the evaluation framework will provide a useful and practical guide for curators working in contemporary string practice, hybrid arts, experimental and cross-art form festival design.
