Unfortunately we'll miss the Festival itself. We're on holiday the week of the Festival (25th to 30th August) and will be at the Eddington Festival of Music and Liturgy, which takes place in the lovely 13th Century Priory Church at Eddington in Wiltshire. More on this festival anon.

Interview
I recently did an email interview with the Irish composer, Ian Wilson, who is the featured composer in this year's Presteigne Festival. Doing an interview by email can be a little stilted as you are denied the ability to ask any follow up questions, or to encourage someone to expand on an answer. But in this case Ian was wonderfully fluent in his answers to my questions, so the interview expands nicely on thoughts about composing and recent works. It is published in Music and Vision.
