Camac Harps has announced details for their annual Festival, held every fall in a different France location. The 2015 festival, which also marks the event’s 10th anniversary, will take place October 16–18 in the town of Nancy, located in the country’s North East region.

“As ever, we are looking forward to a weekend that showcases the harp in all its richness and variety,” says Camac on their HarpBlog. On the program is a Friday night concerto concert featuring Valérie Milot performing the Handel Concerto, Mai Fukui performing Debussy’s “Dances”, and Isabelle Moretti performing the Boildieu concerto, followed by a six-harp performance of Granville Bantock’s Celtic Symphony.

Other featured performers for the weekend event include Kim Robertson, Elinor Bennett, Rossitza Milevska, and Hélène Breschand. The festival will also feature Camac’s historical harp collection on display at the Conservatoire régional du Grand Nancy where concerts and other events will take place.
