Would you like to play the violin and spend a few days in excellent company?

Do you go to a music school or have you ever learnt the violin in the past?

Would you like to apply your knowledge in your life?

In Godalkanje junior fiddle camp we will introduce children to attractive tunes with the aim of strengthening their technical stability, sense of pulse, confidence in performance and joy of playing. We will learn the technique of performing accompaniments by following a leadsheet. We hope that the good weather will allow us to busk on the streets. If you have any concerns or fears, please feel free to contact us or those who have had fears in previous years but no longer have.

On the last day, we will perform a final concert at the 15th Romanica Antiqua Laško Festival.

Educational care will be provided for underage participants.
