Supporting The Cumnock Tryst 2020

2020 is yet another special year for The Cumnock Tryst. Following six wonderful festivals, we’re beginning to increase our activity so that we can add concerts to your diaries all year round, in addition to expanding our education and community programme. Our festival format won’t change, but look out for even more star-studded concerts across the year in our Cumnock Tryst Music Club programme and new opportunities to explore your own creativity!
 
If you were able to join us during our 2019 festival, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. The fabulous mix of performances was topped off with a stunning finale of premieres to celebrate James MacMillan's 60th birthday, performed by our very own Tryst Festival Chorus. Whether you were able to be with us or not, thank you so much for your support, which very much helps to make our work as engaging as possible.

Our Create! project for pupils at The National Autistic Society’s Daldorch House School is up and running with weekly composition sessions being delivered by composer Matilda Brown and Drake Music Scotland. We will begin composition classes in the brand new Robert Burns Academy in Cumnock in the summer term and our festival chorus will be recruiting shortly for singers to take part in a world premiere in October’s festival. We're now very busy finalising our festival brochure and we look forward to sharing more details of another stunning programme when we launch on 3 May.

As always, it’s your ongoing support that allows us to plan ahead and ensure that we bring the world’s leading performers to Cumnock. If you haven’t supported us for a while, perhaps you might consider joining our Friends and Patrons scheme once again, and if you are one of our regular donors, we very much hope you will consider renewing your membership. With so much happening, perhaps you might consider increasing your support to the next level, but whatever your donation, please know how much we appreciate your involvement with the Tryst. 

You can find more details about our Friends and Patrons packages on our website at https://www.thecumnocktryst.com/support-us. If you would like to discuss a more bespoke package then please do get in touch, either at supportus@thecumnocktryst.com or by giving Jennifer a ring on 07958 748293.

We look forward to seeing you at an event in 2020, and meanwhile we send thanks as always, for helping us make The Cumnock Tryst a meeting place for music. 

With very best wishes,
from Team Tryst
