About

A musical journey that weaves a line of unbroken fragments across seven centuries, which is the same timeframe as the existence of Abbotsbury’s Tithe Barn. This unique programme will range from early organum, Machaut, William Byrd, Bach and Mozart to Steve Reich, Kaija Saariaho and other music of today. Performers will include most of our fantastic festival artists. Not to be missed!
