Dartington International Summer School is a summer school and festival of music held on the medieval estate of Dartington Hall, Devon, England. It is a department of the Dartington Trust.[1]

Operation

First established at Bryanston School in 1948 (largely through the work of William Glock), the summer school moved to Dartington in 1953. It is pitched at people who want to enjoy music, both professional (such as conservatoire students) and amateur. Internationally renowned musicians are invited to teach and direct the courses and to perform concerts in the evenings, with some courses working towards student performances at the end of a week.

The school typically runs multiple weeks catering to different musical genres or periods, earlier weeks catering to older music; students sign up for one or more weeks. Although the school is predominantly about classical music (from early through to contemporary), other genres such as digital, world, jazz and folk are also covered.[2] Artists and most participants stay in accommodation on the Dartington Estate, with concerts taking place mainly in the old medieval banqueting hall now known as the Great Hall, and classes being taught around the medieval courtyard and in the studio buildings that used to be part of Dartington College of Arts.[3]

New format

In November 2023, the festival's website said plans for the 2024 festival were being reviewed by a new executive management team, alongside all Dartington Hall Trust's core activities, and that more information would be forthcoming in due course.

In January 2024, Mark Stone (baritone) was announced as Creative Director of Dartington Hall Trust and organiser of the Dartington International Summer School.[4] In the same month, ChoralFest 2024, led by conductor Gavin Carr, was announced as the 76th summer school at Dartington.[5] Dartington Trust had earlier clarified that a music summer school planned for 2024 in Norfok, and run by certain individuals previously connected with Dartington, was not a relocated Dartington Trust activity and an entirely separate event.[6]
