The story

Malta International Spring Orchestra Festival in Valletta

The Malta International Spring Orchestra Festival brings visiting orchestras and student ensembles to Valletta each spring for a programme of orchestral concerts staged in the capital's historic venues. It follows a format common to European touring orchestra festivals, in which visiting groups perform individually and sometimes join Maltese musicians for combined concerts, though specific yearly programme detail could not be independently confirmed.

Valletta's compact grid of honey-coloured streets holds an unusually high concentration of historic performance spaces for a city of its size, from the Manoel Theatre, one of Europe's oldest working theatres, to the grand halls of the Knights-era auberges and the interiors of Baroque churches built for the Order of St John.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Valletta's concentration of historic performance spaces, including Baroque theatres, auberges and church interiors, gives visiting orchestras a setting quite different from the purpose-built concert halls typical of large European touring circuits, pairing classical repertoire with architecture built centuries earlier

02

The mystery stays covered

Spring timing lets visiting school and youth orchestras combine a European touring performance with mild Mediterranean weather outside the peak summer tourist season
