The Musical Workshop Labyrinth presents this summer’s program of seminars in Houdetsi / Crete. For the 10th consecutive year a large number of top class musicians from a wide variety of the world’s musical traditions will converge to teach repertoire, technique, improvisation and composition.
This year’s program includes 30 seminars. There are many new subjects amongst this year’s seminars including some of the foremost and innovative musicians from around the world: Erkan Oğur (fretless guitar & kopuz / Turkey), Carlo Rizzo (Tamburello / Italy), Robbie Harris (Bodhrán / Ireland), Amir Shahsar (Ney, Iran-Israel), Araz Salek (Tar, Iran-Canada), Efren López (Sound-Engineering / Spain). Also the artistic director of the Musical Workshop Labyrinth Ross Daly will teach a seminar focusing on composition within modal musical systems. At the same time 23 more seminars will be available, some of which run for 10 years now!
Have a look at the following list and sign up for whichever seminars interest you soon, so as to be assured of a place. Registration has already begun.
Also this year, amidst the difficult economic situation, we have inaugurated a fundraising campaign to support the work of Labyrinth. See all the information and what you can do to help at supportlabyrinth.com
