BAROQUE MASTERS Friday 1st - Sunday 3rd October 2010 Cadhay Manor, Ottery St Mary, DevonThe Baroque era generated some of the greatest music the world has known, and aspects of this repertoire will be explored during our weekend. We will place particular emphasis on the works of three masters: Bach, Handel and Vivaldi. The weekend is designed as an informal ‘house party’. Guests need only the ability to enjoy music, so no technical knowledge will be required, and music examples will be provided on excellent hi-fi equipment. Cadhay is a beautiful Elizabethan Manor House built around a central courtyard with luxurious accommodation and magnificent gardens. Situated 10 miles east of Exeter and 5 miles from the sea at Sidmouth, it has been restored to its previous splendour while including modern comforts such as central heating and additional bathrooms. Terry Barfoot writes widely on music for Britain’s leading journals, orchestras, festivals and record companies. A well-known figure in the musical life of southern England, he lectures at Oxford and other universities, and is Publications Consultant to the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Guests will arrive on Friday at 5pm and depart on Sunday afternoon. Arts in Residence offers an excellent cuisine including dinner with wine and a traditional Sunday lunch.
