Something special happened on Saturday evening. It was the centrepiece of this yearâs Cumnock Tryst â a programme that fully embraced the ethos of the festival founded five years ago by the Ayrshire townâs local-boy-done-good, Sir James MacMillan, set out by the composer as a means of drawing together the international stars of the classical music firmament, the ordinary people of the burgh, its modest venues and the functional and inspirational application of his music. |
