The Scotsman: A festival that is truly bewitching

Kenneth Walton from The Scotsman spent three days at the Bergen International Festival 2010.

"Where else can you exit a concert at midnight and find the sun still hovering above the horizon, casting its weary glow over a central harbour packed with fishing boats and tall ships and lined with painted wooden houses – a bit like Tobermory on a Viking scale? 

(...)  This is one of those festivals that are as much about location as content; as much about quirky venues as standard theatres and halls; as much about getting to know your fellow festival-goers and feeling a part of the place, even if its just for a few days.""
