April 15, 2018 by Jenni 18 Comments

PR Sample

 

Last year although I couldn’t make the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod I ran a giveaway for it. This year, I am really happy to not only be attending* the evening that Van Morrison will be playing but I also have a family ticket to giveaway for any day of the festival Tuesday-Saturday! 

The festival runs from Tuesday 3rd July to Sunday 8th July.

On Tuesday the festival opens with with one of Britain’s biggest selling, most popular and best loved vocalists of a generation, Alfie Boe. 

On Wednesday finalists of the renowned International Voice of the Future Competition, which aims to advance the career of young singers, will entice the audience with breathtaking performances as they compete for the prestigious title and a share of the £10,000 prize fund. While the judges deliberate on the finalists’ performances, the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod’s newly appointed Music Director, Vicky Yannoula, will take to the piano alongside acclaimed pianist Peter Jablonski in a moving collaboration inspired by the power and magic of the piano – so be prepared for musical fireworks!

On Thursday international competitors will unite promising an immersive sea of vibrant colours and eclectic sounds, as they weave through the audience with their giant flags in the captivating Procession of the Nations. Special guests for the evening award winning band, Calan, will set feet tapping with their quirky interpretation of Welsh folk music. The five-piece band will come with accordion, harp, guitar, fiddles and Welsh bagpipes, to entrance the audience with their beautiful and haunting melodies.
