Publications

The English Music Festival has three main methods of communication with audience members and interested parties. The first, and most lavish, of these publications is Spirited: a substantial Gazette which is published in December each year. Our Newsletter, which was established at the same time as the Festival, appears twice a year, shortly before and after the EMF; and contains the latest news. The Bulletin contains information related to the British Composer Organisations who have signed up to the EMF scheme, and accompanies the Newsletter.

If you are a Friend of the Festival, you will receive all publications by post, free of charge. Those who are not members of our Friends’ Scheme can subscribe to Spirited, thereby also receiving printed copies of the Newsletter and Bulletin. Otherwise, we will send you an copy by email of the Newsletter and the Bulletin if you have provided us with your email address. To join the Festival mailing list, please contact the Founder-Director, Em Marshall-Luck, at em.marshall@btinternet.com.
