Highlights: Upton Blues Festival
听
It's grown from a small gathering in a couple of pubs into something that takes over the town with many thousands of music fans, two main stages, an acoustic stage and ten pubs creating more than 130 performances in three days.
听
Following independent research commissioned by Malvern Hills District Council, the festival is said to contribute more than 拢800,000 to the local economy
听
Three Choirs Festival
听
It's believed to the be the longest running music festival in Europe and rotates between the three cathedral cities of Gloucester, Worcester and Hereford.
听
It is also one of the world鈥檚 oldest classical choral music event - and Sir Edward Elgar organised many of the shows!
听
This year, the organisers hope that much of the music "will reflect the historical tension a century ago between war-torn Europe and the contrasting atmosphere in the United States, where spirits ran high and the arts flourished, even as America entered the war".
听
Elgar's Nimrod
听
Jude Hooke, from Worcester, took the score along to the programme and explained that it belonged to her late husband who worked in the cathedral.
听
The signed manuscript, which dates back to 1899 was valued at between 拢80,000 鈥� 拢100,000.
听
John Norris from the Elgar Foundation says it was sold by the son of Jaeger, or Nimrod, as he was called by Elgar, in his famous Variations.
