4th June to 20th June - Sedbergh Music Festival

Sedbergh’s sixth biennial Music Festival will run from 4th to 20th June 2010. The programme covers a rich canvas of music and, while the main focus is upon the classical end of the musical spectrum, there is a breadth of performances which will take audiences from folk and blues through the classics to experimental music and electronic compositions. International artistes Emma Kirkby and Anthony Rooley will explore the classical tradition in English song and Carlo Curley, the “Pavarotti of the organ”, will give a wide ranging performance including works by Bach, Buxtehude,Sousa and Lindblad. Visiting choirs and soloists will sing works ranging from a Haydn Mass to songs by Gilbert and Sullivan. Instrumentalists, from those in the Town Band to individual soloists, will cover an equally diverse programme. We are extremely fortunate this year to have a wealth of young talent which will include soloists from Chethams, the BBC Radio 3 Youth Choir of the Year 2006 Amabile, the Westmorland Youth Orchestra, the choirs of Sedbergh and Casterton Schools and Sedbergh’s own Pepperpot Music Makers & Festival Players together with the Extreme Cellists. Throughout the Festival there will be an interactive musical and visual experience in Saint Andrew’s Church and there will also be other exciting exploratory events.

The Festival is dedicated to providing opportunities to the local community to enjoy quality music both as performers and audiences and with particular care taken to be totally accessible and inclusive.

The St Andrew’s catering ladies will again be providing dinners and light lunches during the festival. Dinners will be available in the Parish Room before the evening concerts on June 7th, 9th, 14th, 16th and 17th and must be booked in advance from the Tourist Information Office or our online box office. Lunches will be available before the recitals from 12.00 noon in the Parish Room on June 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th, and from 1.00 pm in Queen's Hall on June 9th.

Friday 25th June 2010 - Sedbergh Folkfest (Formerly The Dent Folk Festival)

This event runs from Friday 25th June to Sunday 27th June

The former Dent Folk Festival has been widely regarded as one of the best small folk festivals in the country, with a reputation for being very well organised and having a superb atmosphere. In 2009, after 6 years, this popular festival had outgrown its original site and moved to a new venue on a stunning site under the Howgill Fells at Sedbergh. Following the success of the 2009 festival it was decided to change its name to better reflect where the festival is now held. The festival is still organised by the same dedicated team, all that's changed is its name.

Full details and ticket prices are available on the festival website. Tickets may be purchased online from the festival website or by post or phone from the Sedbergh Tourist Information Centre.

Location: Half a mile east of Sedbergh on the A683.
