This year the Deal Festival is inaugurating a link with
the Presteigne Festival, and the chamber orchestra of young
professional and advanced student players from all over the United
Kingdom which has been a feature of the Presteigne Festival since
1989 will also be playing regularly in Deal. This first concert
includes two classical symphonies and two works for viola and strings
to be played by Sarah-Jane Bradley, one of them a new concertino by
the Festival's Artistic Director David Matthews, who has also made a
special arrangement for strings of the slow movement of Elgar's
String Quartet.
Pre-concert talk by George Vass and David Matthews at
