Following the succesful AGM of the West Buckland Festival, we can now announce that our ‘STAR’ performer at the Sunday night concert, will be Eurovison Song Contest winner and popular recording star Dana.

Dana won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1971, beating such well known, international singing stars as Julio Inglesias. Her song ‘All Kinds of Everything’ went to number one in the charts and established her overnight, as an outstandingly popular performer, a highly successful recording artist, with many chart-topping singles and albums and a television personality.

Dana will be appearing in St Peter’s Church on Sunday 11th September 2011. A number of her songs will be performed with a choir of local schoolchildren.

Other Dates:

Friday evening:
This year we shall have a special Classical Concert featuring well known music composed in the 19th and early 20th century – Paganini, Bizet, Ravel, Grieg and maybe a touch of Elgar. We shall, as always feature some young musicians near the top of their skills. Many will come from North Devon but will be at Music Schools around the UK.

Saturday evening:
In 2009 we had Music Hall, in 2010 it was Cabaret and this year the Show will be pure Variety.We have already booked three favourites from past years – Louise Lloyd – the beautiful Soprano, who two years ago led a packed audience in Land of Hope and Glory, is back and will be as great a pleasure as ever.
