Paxos International Music Festival 2010

Trustees' Announcement

festival programme cover

Since our earlier announcement regarding the loss of our previous funders and also the involvement of the Guildhall School of Music, the Trust has moved forward with outline plans for organizing the September Festival in Paxos this year.

We are planning a 2 week festival, probably between 6th and 20th September, based in Loggos as before, albeit in a slightly different format.

We have had considerable encouragement from our audience and previous performers to ensure the success of past years continues, and the high standards achieved remains a benchmark in our programming for the future.

Several of the outstanding young professionals from last year's event are working with us to present probably 3 concerts.

We are also in discussion with acclaimed Greek musicians and professors to provide a range of music which will highlight their skills within the classical repertoire now being played.

This will hopefully further our aim of broadening the understanding and enjoyment of music throughout the community, taking place in both formal and al fresco locations around Loggos

We are hoping to finalise our arrangements shortly, and will update the web as we progress.
