Cover of Julia Aries & Michael Kennedy: Glyndebourne (ePUB)

This concise history tells the fascinating story of how three generations of the Christie family have grown a small opera house in the South Downs into an internationally acclaimed Festival and Tour, reflecting founder John Christie’s insistence on doing ‘not the best we can do but the best that can be done anywhere’. Today Glyndebourne is a 12-month operation, presenting more than 120 performances each year in the theatre, as well as cinema screenings, free online streamings and award-winning educational output. Illustrated with images from Glyndebourne’s archive, this is an affectionate portrait of one of the most influential music institutions in Britain.
