The Hesse Scheme funds 12 young people, aged 18-25, during each of the two weeks of the Aldeburgh Festival. Participants are drawn from many backgrounds and, increasingly, from overseas.
If you have a love of music, or know someone who might be interested in helping with behind the scenes work during the Festival we'd love to hear from you.
Then Group A could be for you....
Meeting regularly across the year, Group A is an unauditioned vocal and performance group, for 14-18 year olds.
Directed by Pete Letanka, the group also works with a variety of artists, encouraging a wide selection of vocal techniques and develops new material ready for performance.

A Weekend Navigation
Aldeburgh Music’s new cross-arts winter weekend takes to the waters this year with a wide-ranging and fascinating exploration of the meanings of the marine, the estuarine and the waterway in film, art, literature and thought.
Starting from Roger Deakin’s modern classic on swimming, Waterlog, acclaimed writers, artists, film-makers and thinkers will reflect on the paramount importance of the fluid spaces of the planet, in this unique location shaped so profoundly by the tide and its impacts.
