Making a welcome return to this year’s Festival is the interactive sensory experience, Colourscape – a large walk-through labyrinth of colour, light, and music. This family-friendly experience will bring a most enjoyable element to the Festival offering visitors the chance to wander freely through interlinked chambers, and the chance to interact with musicians, artists, and dancers. Colourscape, will be held on The Green in Budleigh Salterton on the weekend of the 9th and 10th July and has been kindly sponsored by Acorn Property Group.

Laura van der Heijden – 15th July (5pm & 8pm)

https://www.budleighmusicfestival.co.uk/event/bach-cello-suites-complete-part-1/

Spread over two concerts, the complete Bach Cello Suites represent the pinnacle of Bach’s art. Each suite is a selection of dances and preludes, but the music is far more than that. This sound world is a guided tour of the inner workings of the composer’s mind and seemingly our own. Our guide is the remarkable young cellist Laura van der Heijden. Since winning the BBC Young Musician of the Year in 2014, Laura’s playing has become renowned for its maturity, intellectual rigour and virtuosity.

At this very special evening, each concert lasts 75 minutes without an interval. Booking is available separately for each concert.
