Andrey Lebedev & Bartosz Glowacki

Mentored by guitar giants Julian Bream and John Williams, we are excited to welcome Andrey Lebedev, classical guitarist, and Bartosz Glowacki, accordionist extraordinaire to the Landulph Festival.

The Australian-Russian Andrey Lebedev is on a mission to redefine the relationship of the guitar to the classical mainstream. You can listen to him play here.

Hailing from Poland, Bartosz has performed as a soloist in prestigious concert halls including the Wigmore Hall, the Royal Festival Hall, the Barbican, the Royal Albert Hall. You can listen to him play here.

Countrymen; Cornish Folk Harmony Group from Launceston

Six seasoned musicians with tight four-part harmony vocals and a token Cornishman! With a relaxed and light-hearted presentation style, they take the audience on a journey through the history and culture of Cornwall, featuring their own arrangements of traditional and contemporary songs, as well as some original material. Interspersed with the occasional pop cover to lighten the mood when required, there is no mistaking that to a man, they love their county with a passion.

Check out a few taster clips here: first video, second video, third video.

“If you get the chance to see these guys in concert then take it, you will not be disappointed”

It’s a panto…Oh! No it isn’t!

jack_3-eFancy seeing your name up in the lights? Come and audition for the Cargreen and Landulph Parish pantomime!

In January 2017 we hope to see the village’s finest performers take to the stage with our production of Jack and the Beanstalk, a hilarious , full-length pantomime by Alexander Vail. An epic adventure, packed with suitably silly characters and outrageously funny dialogue, Jack and the Beanstalk is a brilliant show, loved by audiences of all ages and suitable for performers of all abilities! If you would like to be involved in the production as a performer, or even as part of the production team (helping with set / props / costume etc), please email Sally Worth for more details.

Auditions will be held in the Autumn.

It promises to be great fun and a fantastic opportunity to showcase the villages’ talents!
