Classical and world music share the limelight with international theatre, dance, film, visual arts, children's events, large outdoor spectaculars and a full literature programme. The Festival has a reputation for engaging and inspiring audiences year after year and in 2008 shines a spotlight on singing, with choirs and choruses, soloists and duets, amaterurs and professionals filling venues around Salisbury with song. And we're celebrating the rich artistic heritage of Africa, so look out for new interpretations and traditional pieces from this diverse continent. "Salisbury's programme is a sampler of delights both new and unimagined rather than just another sprawling spree of arts companies" The Guardian, 19 May 2007.
