The 2010 Castleton Festival takes place July 2 through 25. We look forward to welcoming you to Rappahannock County and Castleton Farms for a superb line-up of opera, concert, recitals and more, all under the direction of Maestro Lorin Maazel! Compared with our inaugural season, the 2010 Castleton Festival will feature an additional week of performances, an expanded Festival Tent (with its own Café), and a broader range of programming, incorporating additional symphonic concerts, new opera repertoire, dance and puppetry.

The centerpiece production of 2010 Festival will be a new production of Puccini's glorious Il Trittico, which opens the Festival on July 2 and runs through July 24. Two brilliant musical works that are rarely seen in their original, full theatrical conceptions, will be paired in our other new production: Stravinsky's The Soldier's Tale and De Falla's Master Pedro's Puppet Show. Please visit the calendar or events page for full details of all Festival offerings. During the Festival, daily schedules listing all events, including pre- or post-concert talks, informal chamber music concerts and late-night cabaret performances will be available.

We also invite you to follow the Castleton Festival on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Flickr
