We are pleased to announce the dates for the 2012 Bangalow Music Festival
The festival will take place over August 17, 18 and 19 2012
Bangalow Music Festival is an enchanting weekend of music in an intimate setting. Showcasing a vibrant cross-section of musical styles in the beautiful township of Bangalow, just ten minutes from Byron Bay, this annual Festival is a world-class event.
The programs are rich in collaboration between professional chamber ensembles, emerging young artists, Australian composers and outstanding soloists. Over the years the Festival has welcomed many distinguished artists, including Ilya Knovalov (Concertmaster of the Israel Philharmonic), the Australian String Quartet, Tankstream Quartet, Tel-Aviv Trio, Marshall Maguire, Slava Grigoryan, and of course members of the Southern Cross Soloists.
After attending the Festival in 2004, legendary Australian composer Peter Sculthorpe described it as, “the most exciting festival, outside a capital city, that I have ever attended”.
The award-winning Bangalow Music Festival has been the most spectacular development of the Southern Cross Soloists in recent years. The Festival has grown to become one of the country’s finest music festivals.
The 2011 festival marked the tenth anniversary of this wonderful festival.
