Asides from Glyndebourne

Asides from Glyndebourne



The first thing one notices on arriving at Glyndebourne is the beauty of the place, a series of wonderful large flower and tree gardens and vast lawns, all set in the South Downs. Beyond the gardens are fields and lovely hills. Perfect on a sunny, but not sweltering, summer’s afternoon. (A slight reservation must be registered over the large wind turbine at the back of the house and the big water tank-like structure on the roof where house joins concert hall – presumably containing the stage machinery.)
