Vilde Frang live in Snape

Experience Vilde Frang live on June 28th

Vilde Frang is a Norwegian violinist internationally recognised for her insightful and emotionally resonant interpretations of classical repertoire. Her playing is often described as possessing both technical brilliance and a lyrical quality, frequently noted for its clarity and nuanced phrasing. She performs a wide range of works, from core classical pieces to contemporary compositions, demonstrating versatility across different musical periods.

The concert on June 28th, 2026 will be held at Snape Maltings, Suffolk. Originally converted from historic malt houses in the 1960s, Snape Maltings was famously championed by Benjamin Britten, who sought a dedicated performance space for his opera company. The complex now comprises concert halls – most notably the main concert hall known for its exceptional acoustics – alongside shops showcasing local crafts and a visitor centre.

Britten’s vision transformed the previously derelict buildings into a thriving arts hub deeply rooted in the surrounding landscape. The site’s unique architectural character, blending industrial heritage with natural beauty on the banks of the River Alde, contributes significantly to its atmosphere and appeal as a venue for musical performances. It remains a significant cultural landmark in East Anglia and continues to host a diverse programme of events throughout the year.
