the brittany workshop 

The care and attention to detail you put into the entire package is on a par with the care and attention to detail that you put into your own playing and compositions. That you manage to do so while remaining so modest, generous and approachable makes me feel so lucky to have met you and discovered your musical universe. You are one of a kind, man!

The Info

Workshop Duration: 4 days

Dates: 08/05/24 - 11/05/24

Location: La Fontenelle, France

Description: Course content will include four contrasting solo pieces, ensemble arrangements, discussions around arranging and composing for guitar and approaches to enhance musicality in performance. Each participant will also have the opportunity to receive a 30-minute 1-2-1 lesson as well as part of the course.

Whilst the course caters for varying abilities, it is recommended that participants have a good grasp of acoustic guitar basics (standard chord shapes and a few fingerstyle patterns) to gain the maximum benefit from this experience, and each course will end with an informal concert in front of a small invited audience.

Participants are asked to organise their own travel and you should aim to arrive on the Tuesday before the course begins and leave on the Sunday after the final day. Accommodation options are provided in and around the village, with more details provided on application.

The evenings provide opportunity to visit local restaurants with the group, and return for tunes around the kitchen table over a glass of calvados.

Timings: 10:00 - 17:00 every day with breaks for refreshments and lunch.

Fee: £375 which includes printed course materials, refreshments, lunches, and a welcome meal on the first night.

Availability: Limited to 9 participants. Sold out. Please contact me via the button below to be put on the waiting list.
