If you are not familiar with Seen&Heard you might like to look at the
reviews for this month. Now that the proms have finished we have turned
out attention to Contemporary Music Festivals and include reports from:
SAN SEBASTIAN FESTIVAL August-September 2000 from Peter and Alexa Woolf
This took place in a most unusual arts centre, the Kursaal, where the
outline of the building does not contain any true vertcal or horizontal
(see stunning photos). A centre piece of the festival was a homage to
Louis de Pablo. You might like to read Peter Woolf's article on this
