Festival Singers Overpaliced. Verse on English music festivals
A critical piece argues that vast sums paid to solo singers drain funds and threaten festival viability. It urges cutting expensive virtuosi like Malibran and Cinti, favoring modest, well balanced performances with larger choral forces to advance art. The piece calls for fair terms for accompanists and warns festivals risk abandonment if costs stay skewed.
