On its 17th visit to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, ROSL ARTS boasts another bigger and better award-winning series of concerts, lectures, brunches and discussions.

From the expanded programme of 2015 there is still more to be added, spreading to 55 musical, artistic and literary events over the whole three weeks of the International Festival and Fringe.

The best selling ROSL ARTS classical music programme which includes Bach or Beethoven for Breakfast, Chopin after Lunch, Mozart at Teatime and Jazz Brunch, are augmented by new events in the lunchtime slot of each week – talks on the history of colour, literary panel discussions on fantasy, heroines, detectives and Scottish poetry, and anecdotes about famous composers.

Consistent quality is assured by continuing to focus on showcasing ROSL ARTS prizewinning musicians whatever the musical genre.

With its central location, relaxed ambiance and refreshments included in the ticket price, Music & More at 100 Princes Street offers one of the most civilised experiences on the Fringe.

100 Princes Street, home to the Royal Over-Seas League (a unique non profit membership organisation) is a relaxed haven amid the hustle and bustle of the festival, where guests can enjoy stunning views of Edinburgh’s Old Town and Castle over a pre-concert light lunch with a glass of wine.
