Music on the Isles - August 2023
Caroline and Wolfgang Bergius are delighted to announce that their annual chamber music and orchestral course for young musicians is once again able to take place on Berneray during August 2023. 'Music on the Isles', held regularly on the island since 1999, was - like many other cultural activities - frozen during the last three years due to Covid travel restrictions. Nevertheless during gaps in lockdowns the young instrumentalists were able to take part in substitute rehearsal phases and even concerts with limited audience participation in Germany.
Preparations are in full swing for this year's venture and 15 gifted string players between the ages of 8 and 18 years are fervently looking forward to combining a fortnight's rehearsal time with the pleasures of sea and sand on Berneray. The fruits of their intensive practice can be heard in two public concerts to be held in the Community Hall Berneray on Friday 11th and Saturday 12th August 2023, both at 7.30 pm. This year's repertoire includes works (among others) by Handel, Bach, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky and Britten.
Please tell your family and friends on neighbouring islands (and indeed from further afield!) to come along and support the cultural enterprise of our young enthusiasts from Germany. We look forward to welcoming all those who have enjoyed the performance of live classical music in past years in these beautiful surroundings.
Tickets at the door: £10, students 14-18 £5, under 14 free
Reservations as of 25th July, Tel: 01876 540338
