We live in a world of overload.
Never have there been so many photographs, never has their quality been so poor. Never has there been so much communication, and never has there been so much loneliness. Never has there been so much music available, and never has the sound been so deficient.
The world does not need more. No more filling without satisfaction. No more second rate copies of something that was once original.
What we need is originals. The real thing. Something someone has worked
at, is proud of, which sates our desires, our want, our curiosity.
At Tønder Festival we have been original individuals since 1974. We bring the summer to a close with real music, in real Southern Jutland fenland, with real experiences.
Our community grows year by year, as volunteers, guests, musicians and local folk share their love for what is made with care, the special, the true.
Here, we support music in its original form, and everyone is welcome, on one condition: come as you are, and we will bring out, sing out, your true side.
That’s why musicians from all over the world choose Tønder. And that’s why all we individuals – as true as we can be – meet here in the fens at the end of each summer.
