William is thoroughly enjoying organising the first Festival of Music at Ipswich School to be held in September this year. Below you will find a recent press release issued by Ipswich School -
“The Music Department is organising its first-ever Festival of Music, from 16th-20th September this year. The Festival is the brainchild of William Saunders, Assistant Director of Music. “Ipswich School is an centre of excellence for music, and we have a wealth of experience in organising public events. The Festival programme ranges from world class musicians, such as Julian Lloyd Webber, who will be giving a cello masterclass as well as a lunchtime recital, to a community event involving local schools in an African drumming and Brazilian Samba Workshop.” The School’s own Chapel Choir will lead the Festival Evensong, and the Big Band will join the Ipswich Musicians’ Union Big Band in a concert. His Majestys Sagbutts & Cornetts will perform music from Music from England, Germany, Spain and Italy, and there will be concerts by percussionist Joby Burgess, tenor Richard Edgar Wilson, and organist James Parsons. Tickets are available online from July.”
