Message from Levon ChilingirianArtistic DirectorOur annual pilgrimage to Mull starts with the ferry from Oban. The crossing is stunningly beautiful with the majestic Duart Castle on the left and the distant mountains to our right. Once on the island, there is a noticeable calmness in both musicians and audience - a strong sense of retreat from all everyday chores and worries and the sense of batteries being re-charged and fresh thoughts coming to the fore. Mendelssohn on Mull is about renewal and development and the pleasure of collaborating with often unfamiliar colleagues who have travelled from afar to experience its unique atmosphere. Friendships are created for life and musical experiences evolved which are often miraculous.  Return to top |
