Music Seminars

24st-29th August 2009 WITH
Reinhold Friedrich, Kristian Steenstrup and
Nicholas Thompson

Reinhold and Kristian proved to be a formidable teaching team in 2008, upholding the great tradition of Sillico trumpet courses since 1996, previously held by Michael Laird, Stephen Keavy and Keith Johnson. If you are thinking of attending a trumpet course in 2009, it MUST be this one! We look forward to a great week with them and also to comparing notes and socialising with friends old and new from around the world. Players are asked to bring the solo, section and ensemble material they wish to work-on to Sillico (including the appropriate accompaniments) and at the end of the week some of the repertoire will be performed in concert. The course will be tailored to individuals’ wishes as much as possible. Participants are invited to dinner at 8pm on 23rd August and may arrive at any time that day. They are welcome to stay for breakfast on 30th August.

We are extremely lucky to have again secured the services of Eriko Takezawa as our accompanist for the week.
