This Budleigh Salterton will be donating £1,000 in the form of sponsorship to the Budleigh Salterton Music Festival’s educational outreach work. The festival, held in June/July each year is highly acclaimed and attracts many attendees from the South West and beyond.
One of the major educational features is a series of lunchtime concerts for young musicians. We are donating £500 towards the costs of Ryan Gosling’s performance, a classical accordionist currently doing his Masters at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. These opportunities to perform play a key role in supporting a young musician along the difficult road of establishing and developing a career in classical music.
A further £500, including a contribution of £250 from the Arts Society Community Grant scheme is going towards the festival’s outreach work to bring local primary school children to attend the lunchtime concerts free of charge. Over 300 attended last year and we believe our sponsorship will ensure more will be able to participate this year. Attending these concerts is the first time for most to have this experience, and it also gives the pupils the chance to see young musicians starting out on their career. The sponsorship donation will also go towards the development of a teaching pack for the teachers to prepare the children for the experience.
