The Edinburgh
International Festival has been connecting audiences and artists for over sixty
years. Founded in 1947, the Festival grew out of the rubble of the Second World
War with the aim of providing 'a platform for the flowering of the human
spirit'. This belief in the power of the arts to nurture and transform lies at
the heart of the Festival's mission today.
Festival
2013 explores the relationship between artists and their contemporary
innovations, materials and technologies in a rich and diverse way taking in
early examples from around 500 years ago right through to the modern day in all
art forms both classical and contemporary, chamber and large scale.
The 2013
Festival opens with the concert “Alexander Nevsky” where three great Russian
musicians join the Royal Scottish National Orchestra in a pair of seminal
masterpieces by Prokofiev.

National Orchestra conducted by Mikhail Pletnev.
