Leicester International Music Festival
The finest classic chamber music played by world class musicians is once again returning to Leicester.
This year the festival is dedicated to one of Britain’s greatest musicians in his 100th Anniversary year, Benjamin Britten. A Voyage Around Britten celebrates not only Britten as composer, but as performer and inspirer of generations of performers and composers. Festival highlights this year include the world première of a new work by Festival composer in residence Huw Watkins; a version of the Bach’s Goldberg Variations for string quartet; and glorious works by Britten, Schumann, Schubert, Debussy, Poulenc ,Mozart, Ravel, Frank Bridge and Tchaikovsky.
