Flourish - April 25th - 28th 2024
After a really lovely weekend in 2023, I am delighted to offer a slightly longer session in 2024. The course will be intensive and energising with open classes, ensembles and performance opportunities. Technique will be addressed in ways that relate directly to repertoire and there will be more fun with folk and the loop pedal. Suitable for Grade 6/7 plus.
" To grow or develop in a healthy or vigorous way as the result of a congenial environment"
Arrive on Thursday evening for supper and listen to the Telemann Fantasies ready for an early start on Friday. The course ends on Sunday afternoon with a concert and for all participants and guests.
Its small and intimate - there are a maximum 8 residential and 6 day places. The venue is on the crest of Sundays Hill, Falfield, Nr Bristol, with stunning views, nature all around and fabulous, healthy food.
It's easily accessible by rail, the M4 / M5 and Bristol airport.
Full board and lodging in a lovely new barn conversion and the adjacent Farmhouse £360 - £450,
non-residential including food £280, and single days £100. Please ask about bursaries.
