DESCRIPTION
Experience the dynamic "Style Workout" workshop, where young musicians dive into diverse styles, rhythm, improvisation, and instrument-based fun. Guided by Aleksey Igudesman, participants explore classical and ethnic music, along with Igudesman's own eclectic compositions and improvisations, delving into various playing techniques while incorporating movement and dance. Discover rhythms beyond the classical repertoire, alternative sound production, and stylistic ornamentation from Indian, Arabic, Celtic, Balkan, Klezmer, Jazz, and Rock music.
Humor and its translation to the instrument are also explored, making this workshop inclusive for all instrumentalists.
Igudesman's expertise in physical movement and dance during performance further enriches this extraordinary and unconventional workshop. Additionally, young, advanced, and professional musicians can explore Igudesman's published sheet music with Universal Edition, including titles like "Klezmer & More," "Celtic & More," "Latin & More," "Asia & More," "Miles & More," "Mozart & More," "Fasten Seat Belts," as well as delightful duets for young violinists such as "The Catscratchbook," "Pigs Can Fly," and "Fishsummernights Dream."
