		Has anyone at the festival sought to develop a relationship with musicians of this stature in order to ensure their participation at some point in the future, a policy no doubt effectively employed to obtain the services of important performers in other disciplines.
		The great advantage a festival director has over other promoters is that people, at least in part, buy tickets to festival events wanting to be surprised; they are willing to experiment.
