The 10th AUSTRIAN PERCUSSION CAMP –
A FEAST FOR HANDS, FEET, VOICE, EARS,
PALATE, HEART AND SOUL.
Nowhere do people celebrate with such abandon as in the Balkan countries. That is why several musical trips are heading there this year:
* Our successful CAMP CHOIR project will undertake excursions to the music of the Balkan countries and Africa.
* TUPAN and DAVUL will be the favorite instruments of many percussionists after this week.
* BALKAN BOOGIE can be learned in the World Music Ensemble.
* FIT4DRUMS will push you to the limit with odd rhythms.
We are also offering SALSA PERCUSSION from Cuba, DANCE MUSIC FROM AFRICA, GAMELAN MUSIC from Indonesia and DRUMLINE GROOVES from the U.S.
Enjoying the process of developing and perfecting your skills is the focus of AUSTRIAN PERCUSSION CAMP 2018.
I am very happy that the AUSTRIAN PERCUSSION CAMP has developed from a purely instrumental course into an international festival of percussion music and has become a week of adventure unparalleled throughout Europe.
For years, CMA-Carinthian Music Academy in Ossiach Abbey has been an ideal partner and we have certainly found the most beautiful location in Austria.
Atmospheric and appropriate classrooms, a phenomenal concert hall, private access to the lake and excellent food and music, music, music…what more could your heart desire?
Once again a busy week for the whole family and prospective professionals.
I am looking forward to meeting you or seeing you again.
Have a nice time until then.
