WYGF-extra … 1-day festival announced!

Two years can seem an awfully long time to wait ….  and although WYGF is definitely worth waiting for, we are really excited to announce the launch of WYGF-extra: a one-day festival which will take place on Monday 26 July 2010  -  what better way to kick off the first day of the summer holidays!

WYGF-extra will be taking place in Southampton and provisional times are 10am – 5pm. Under the expert eyes of a team of top tutors there will be loads of ensemble playing, workshops and a student concert to round it all off. Our very special guests will also include GUITAR CIRCUS who will be giving their debut concert for us.

We have limited places available so you’ll have to get your skates on to secure a place. The whole day, including the concert is £25. All music will be provided and you’ll need to bring a packed lunch and all your guitar kit.

So if you want to come along, either on your own, or with a group of friends or perhaps your guitar ensemble then fill in an online form for INDIVIDUAL or GROUP applicants here.

If one day is simply not enough, you may be interested to know that our sister festival, Winchester Guitar Festival (WGF) will be taking place from Friday 23 – Sunday 25 July. This year’s guest artists include Laura Young (Canada) and Mark Ashford (UK) and the weekend will be full of ensemble coaching, workshops, masterclasses, the WGF concert series and of course the WGF student concert to round off the event.
