Crash courses

Ukulelе | African drums

Participation in a crash course is possible in addition to the main master course or amateur course, instead of a public appearance. On the last day of the master classes we offer the possibility to try playing traditional and rare instruments like Icelandic or baroque flute, gemshorn (chamois horn), ukulele, African drums and Austrian mouth-organ, sing Tyrolean yodel (a type of singing without words, with rapid changes between chest voice and falsetto) or Carinthian folk-songs (singing canons in Carinthian dialect). The crash courses allow you to try the exotic and have a lot of fun with it.

Certificates are given out upon completing the course.

Course fee: 250 Euro
