Violin virtuoso Vanessa-Mae has announced she will be appearing as part of The Forestry Commission's 2009 Forest Tours next Summer.
Vanessa-Mae, with her band, and a symphony orchestra, will be performing at Westonbirt Arboretum, Tetbury, Gloucestershire on Saturday 18th July 2009.
Vanessa-Mae has collaborated with such pop legends as Janet Jackson and Prince; performed on the soundtrack of the Disney animated feature Mulan; played Bach for the British Royal Family on the 250th anniversary of the composer's death; fiddled as she modelled a wedding dress at a Jean-Paul Gaultier fashion show in Paris; and reached out to the children of the South African township of Soweto, the first international artist to be invited to its music school.
Tickets are on sale priced at £30, to buy tickets click here.
Disabled users:
There is a disabled parking at every site and they all have a wheelchair platform although the nice thing is because of the arena's design wheelchair users often spend the time with their group as there is plenty of space and it is flat. There is a hotline number to call for further information: 01842 814612.
The Forestry Commission is committed to taking woodlands to new audiences, and making them relevant to people in new ways. The forest tour is self-sustaining, paying for itself, and providing valuable revenue to plough back into the woodland in a variety of environmental and social projects.
More information will be here when available.
