Artistic Director’s Welcome

Theme: Perceptions

I am delighted to welcome you to this website for the 2025 North Wales International Music Festival. The Festival launch on 12th June 2025 will see these pages fill-up with full information on the brilliant artists taking part this year, programme details, commissions, our fringe events, masterclasses, talks and how you can book your tickets.

Until then, let me introduce you to this year’s theme… This year we celebrate and investigate the strong links and connections between music and the human mind as we delve into the multi-faceted world of ‘Perceptions’. The importance of music and the arts in supporting and promoting good mental health is well-known and well-documented by scientists and psychologists world-wide and, through a series of concerts, workshops, masterclasses and discussions, we attempt to examine these positive aspects of music for our mental wellbeing.
