Music Along the Rhine
Walking the Rhine Valley
The Lucerne Festival
" The quality of the performances was excellent as always with the musicians chosen being of the highest calibre... The venues were exciting for me as I had not visited any previously and loved the beauty and history of these places – I was quite entranced with the lovely Schloss Raesfeld and after the beautiful lieder performance, lost myself within its grounds while the second concert was on. The programme booklet as always, is a totally complete guide to the entire concert tour with incredible information on each of the performances including details of the lyrics and their translations that then become wonderful reference literature for me into the future. I have kept every one from your numerous music festivals that I have enjoyed over the years. " Music Along the Rhine - Outstanding music, beautiful countryside and historic towns along Germany’s principal river
" Richard Wigmore was delightful company, an encyclopaedic source of music history and an engaging lecturer. " Walking the Rhine Valley - Concerts and hikes through woods, fields and vineyards
" We had a good mixture of culture, concerts, excellent food, sightseeing and trips, with each day in itself a balance of all these. " The Lucerne Festival - Music in Switzerland’s loveliest city
