York Spring Festival of New Music 2011 programme announced

Posted on 22 March 2011

The 2011 York Spring Festival of New Music will run from Wednesday 11 May to Sunday 15 May, bringing exciting musicians and ensembles to York, as well as presenting a wealth of local talent.

Showcasing music from jazz and folk, to opera and ballet, this cutting-edge programme promises to appeal to a broad audience, whilst offering a new musical experience to the listener.

Highlights include The Hebrides Ensemble (whose playing was described by The Herald as ‘a towering emotional interpretation’), Ballet Bewegung (an exciting new chamber ballet group) and, to close the festival, a folk evening featuring innovative local acts.
