Founded by Ayrshire’s own Sir James MacMillan CBE, The Cumnock Tryst is a contemporary music festival that aims to bring people together and have a deep, lasting impact on the local community.
With the main programme of events taking place in October every year, the Tryst brings professional classical musicians to Ayrshire as a true ‘meeting place for music’.
David at the Tryst came to us looking for a new site that would elevate their online presence. Classical music has a (totally incorrect) reputation of being slightly stuffy or behind the times – it was over to us to change this for the Tryst.
Broadening access to music in and around Ayrshire is an ongoing task that
requires a fresh approach that prioritises engaging new ideas, whilst ensuring there’s an ongoing respect for the classical music that’s at the core of the
Tryst’s mission.
Our job was to translate this into a site that would elevate the Tryst’s online presence whilst staying true to its roots.
The Cumnock Tryst’s brand was a fun one to work with – it gave us a classy look to play with alongside some illustrative elements that really helped lift things off the screen.
A slick, modern design system paired with their incredible photography paved the way for a new site that would share their story and sell tickets successfully.
A modern, dynamic visual for a future-thinking organisation, the new Tryst website reflects their vision for the future.
It’s focused on bringing their brand and mission to life in a way that resonates with their growing fanbase, connecting classical music opportunities with a global audience.
A nod to The Cumnock Tryst’s legacy, whilst prepping them with a digital home to carry them into the future.
I can’t recommend Scoot highly enough.
From the very first conversation we had to the final delivery, the team was fantastic in rapidly solving the problems we were experiencing, and developing a site that really articulates the ethos of our organisation. I especially appreciated the clear/frequent communication throughout the process. I’m hoping that we can work with Scoot into the future.
