Dear Guitar Friends
Welcome to the IGF Festival and Summer School which this year is held in the beautiful Spa town of Cheltenham.
Again, we have a stunning lineup of great courses and concerts for you: no less than 6 contemporary popular styles taught by the best teachers in the country, an exciting Flamenco course and a classical programme featuring some of the world’s most famous players.
This year we’re in the wonderful setting of Dean Close School which has amazing facilities and is ideally located 5 minutes from the train station and less than 10 minutes from the gorgeous city centre.
See you in Cheltenham in August!
Tom Kerstens, IGF Artistic Director
