This week is an opportunity for string players and pianists to explore the immense wealth of repertoire available, receive high quality ensemble coaching, as well as have minimum one individual instrumental lesson with their respective tutor(s), and minimum one Alexander lesson.
This course will be suitable both for ready-formed ensembles, and individuals who would like to meet and play music with others at AMS.
By the end of the week, groups and players will be selected to perform, if they so wish.
Depending on numbers, it may be possible for individuals or an ensemble to come to AMS, to participate in the fiestas, or have instrumental and/or Alexander lessons, without participating in the whole course.
(Please enquire to Cat Jary for details)
This course takes place in the height of the local village fiesta season, and so there will be plenty of opportunity for musicians to participate and perform.
