EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grace and elegance of Diana Gould, Lady Menuhin, as she makes her way to Orford Church for the Choral and Orchestral Concert during the Aldeburgh Festival in 1963. Dressed in a flowing white dress and holding a pair of elegant white gloves, Diana, a renowned ballerina, exudes an air of refinement and poise as she leaves the home of Clifford and Mrs Heron. The Aldeburgh Festival, founded by Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears in 1948, was a celebrated annual musical and theatrical event held in the picturesque seaside town of Aldeburgh, Suffolk. The festival attracted some of the most renowned artists of the time, including Yehudi Menuhin, who was married to Diana Gould at the time. Menuhin, a world-renowned violinist, was a frequent performer at the Aldeburgh Festival. The photograph captures a moment of anticipation and excitement as Diana Gould prepares to attend the concert. The setting, with its rolling hills, quaint cottages, and the church in the background, adds to the sense of history and tradition that surrounded the Aldeburgh Festival. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when classical music and dance were celebrated in a small English town, surrounded by a community of passionate and dedicated artists. The photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Aldeburgh Festival and the artists who graced its stages. It serves as a reminder of the power of art to bring people together and create lasting memories.
