WORKSHOP BY HOWARD LEVY
We are very proud that HOWARD LEVY (http://www.levyland.com/), one of the best, if not actually the best harp player out there, is doing a workshop for advanced diatonic harp players. He wants to share his immense knowledge with the participants.

WORKSHOP WITH KATHRIN GASS
For friends of the Chromatic KATHRIN GASS is presenting this year's three-day workshop. Kathrin teaches classic chromatic harp at the Hohner-Konservatorium in Trossingen. This workshop is addressed to advanced players.

WORKSHOP WITH IGOR FLACH
Again this year IGOR FLACH will teach precise playing on the diatonic tenhole-harp. Igor has developed his own powerful unmistakable playing style. The workshop appeals to advanced players. Igor and his students will work out to play a piece with a good technique.

The flyer with details for all workshops can be downloaded as pdf-file here (German Version only â sorry!)

DR. HARMONICA
                                                                                special event 

SEYDEL presents their own workshop program taking place  in the factory building.

It is addressed to harp-players (or those who wants to become) that are present in Klingenthal during the days before the actual festival, but who do not participate in the scheduled workshops.

The title âDR. HARMONICAâ is related to 20 minutes individual consulting hours where customers can ask whatever they want concerning the harmonica (e.g. playing technique, customizing, improvisation etc.). The âconsulting hourâ is held by Ben Bouman and Bertram Becher. In the afternoon two workshops will take place,1 : âBreathing, tonebuilding and rhythmâ and 2: âSeydelâs special tunings (BBBB). For kids there will be a workshop on âI  can build up my own harmonica!â (Matthias Gruber). A beginnerâs workshop on âPlaying of traditional tunes on the diatonicâ is presented by Sepp Bergauer.

The detailed DR. HARMONICA program with timetables can be downloaded here:
