Accompanist Information 2024/2025
This year, Taunton Festival of the Arts requires entrants to arrange their own accompaniment, as no official accompanist will be provided.
Alternatively, you may contact Andrew Trewhella, who has previously accompanied at our festival. Andrew would be happy to arrange rehearsals, payment, and logistics directly with you.
We recommend contacting Andrew by the closing date of 15th November.
Please note the earlier closing date of Friday 15th November. All entries submitted after this date will incur an additional £5 administration fee. Please add the late entry item to your basket when you check out (after 15th November). You will only need to add this once. Thank you for your understanding.
This Music festival has been named in honour of Brian Cresswell “Taunton’s Man of Music” who made such an inspiring and important contribution to the Taunton Festival of the Arts over many years.
