NEWS
Next summer’s Aldeburgh Festival will
occupy the entire month of June.
It will include 41 first performances, including
a debut opera by Tom Coult, several works
by the UK-Lebanese composer Bushra El-
Turk and a tribute theme for the late Oliver
Knussen. Roger Wright has nailed a coat of
many colours to his seaside mast.
See the staggering list of new stuff below.
Much of it is so new it has yet to be titled.
