From the Farnham Youth choir singing Bach and Rutter to a concert by Klangform Vienne called “Frankenstein is coming!” cellists playing from the Berlin Philharmonic, to free music being performed in venues and open spaces around Sion, there’s a rich and varied programme on offer at the Sion festival 2019. It opens today, the 16th August and continues until the 1st September 2019.

Some concerts are free, others are ticketed
