The Anghiari Festival has grown over the years to encompass a vast range of performances in stunning and unusual settings and to enable wide audiences of visitors, residents and locals to experience truly exceptional music. For Southbank Sinfonia’s young players, presenting a week of diverse programmes is a significant but rewarding challenge and a true highlight of their year with us.
We are committed to presenting an open and inclusive programme (in Anghiari and in London) with almost all concerts and events free to attend. However, as the scope of the festival increases year on year, so inevitably do the costs. We do not receive any ticket income from the festival as this goes to the local hosts: their support is vital and we remain truly grateful for the help they give us, in particular providing accommodation for the players. Unlike many similar festivals, this is not a commercial venture and Southbank Sinfonia’s core mission is to provide vital training and support for talented musicians as they embark on their careers.
It costs Southbank Sinfonia £ 50,000 per year to run the Anghiari Festival. This includes:
