Denotes a performance created
specifically for Dartington
Welcome
I’m delighted to welcome you to the 2016 concert programme
at Dartington International Summer School & Festival. By day,
we run classes and courses where tomorrow’s young musical
stars listen, learn, participate and socialise with music-lovers
of all ages and backgrounds. In the early evening, Dartington
transforms into a concert hall: we throw open the doors of the
magnificent medieval Great Hall, and present concerts of all
kinds of music, for everyone. From opera, jazz, string quartets,
solo recitals, music theatre, poetry, to illustrated lectures,
Brazilian rhythms, gospel, film music and choral music,
there’s a vibrant sequence of live music events throughout the
whole month of August, and a really festive atmosphere.
There are up to three concerts each night; you can enjoy worldclass performances by world-famous musicians, in the beautiful
setting of Dartington’s wonderful grounds. Come and join us!
Joanna MacGregor Artistic Director

We celebrate Shakespeare’s
400th anniversary in style,
with Stile Antico’s stunning
madrigal concert and William
Lyons and Peter Oswald’s
exploration of Shakespeare’s
theatre. There’s virtuosic
Venetian music from Carole
Cerasi’s delightful harpsichord,
and the majestic glory of St
Mark’s Basilica in Monteverdi’s
Vespers. Enjoy the haunting art
of Dowland with Emma Kirkby,
The City Musick rollicking
through German streets, The
Brook Street Band on fire with
Corelli, and Joanna MacGregor
performing Bach’s life-affirming
Well-Tempered Clavier.
30 Jul – 05 Aug

abounds this week, meshing
improvisation, Arabic culture
and medieval literature.
Experience late night poetry
and jazz from Huw Warren and
Alice Oswald; a rare performance
of Terry Riley’s In C; Stevie
Wishart’s Transients; and Middle
Eastern sacred music, lullabies

In C ushered in a new musical

Riley’s his love of John Coltrane,
Miles Davis, mysticism and North
African music, In C is defined by
interactions between a diverse
group of musicians, and every
performance is unique, hypnotic
and beautiful.
‘Like so many of the greatest
musical breakthroughs, In C is
simple to understand, but rich,
subtle and diverse when you hear
it performed.’ Tom Service,

Missa Solemnis. All three have
in common a new way of ending.
Op.111 leaves a dual impression
– it is the final testimony of his
sonatas as well as a prelude to
silence…simplicity as a result of
complexity – distilled experience.’

Week
Jazz storms back week, with
sax titan Andy Sheppard and
Dutch trumpeter Eric Vloeimans
bringing their inimitable brand
of cool. There’s a treat for brass
lovers with the sensational
Alison Balsom, a brass version
of Mussorgsky’s mighty Pictures
at an Exhibition, and the
stonking Big Band and Jive
on the last night. Master of
the Queen’s Music Judith Weir
nurtures new string works,
and Sarah Angliss curates
installations around the
beautiful gardens.
22 – 29 August
Young musicians – including
the Heath Quartet, Steven
Osborne and Veronika Shoot
- pack the week, and there’s
an American, jazz-inflected
theme, from Porgy and Bess
for two pianos to Rhapsody in
Blue, Appalachian Spring and
John Adams. Satie’s 150th
birthday is celebrated in a
series of pop-ups, plus a new
production of Stravinsky’s
The Soldier’s Tale.
Finally, French passion bursts
into vivid colour at the end
of the week, with Fauré’s
Requiem and Bizet’s Carmen.
