2010 Winter School dates 18 - 20 June!!!
Maleny Celtic Winter School is a weekend of celtic music workshops set in the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland town of Maleny. The focus is on workshops but the program also includes a concert, a ceili as well as plenty of traditional style sessions. The school is based in the town with all venues within walking distance.
Celtic music is known for its inclusive nature. The traditional session, where musicians sit together in a circle and share their music with one another (and their audience) is something that happens all around the world. One of the most important aspects of the Maleny Celtic Winter School will be the sessions. As well as an opportunity to see experienced, high-quality trad musicians playing together there will also be plenty of opportunities for beginners in trad music to work with these people in a setting that encourages the learning of trad tunes, by ear and at an easy pace on any instrument.
