London Mozart Players – Grande Finale

Menu
It is with great regret that we announce the cancellation of the 23rd Ripon International Festival events planned for September and October 2020.
Musicians are facing a challenge to the very existence of their profession as the livelihoods of many vanished almost overnight, so this has been a very hard decision for us; but, in expectation of brighter times to come, we have invited the orchestras and artists that were booked for this year to take part in 2021 and plan to present events in May and September.
Months of work has already gone into creating this year’s programme and we are deeply grateful to our loyal supporters for generously helping us through this difficult period so as to ensure that the Festival’s world-class performances can continue in this beautiful part of North Yorkshire. We look forward with optimism to welcoming you back in 2021 to celebrate once again the joy of music and the arts.
Janusz Piotrowicz – Artistic Director
