The elegant and characterful surroundings of Chester make it a great place for that most English of summer events – the music festival. This year promises a bit of a departure from the norm, with an emphasis on new commissions, premieres and the country’s best young musicians, as well as a focus on vocal and crossover music. This eclectic mix will be watched over by the Festival’s artist in residence, the renowned saxophonist and composer, John Harle.
