Music ateliers

This season, De Centrale is once again the place to be for anyone interested in learning to play the qanun, bağlama (saz), ud, darbuka, riqq, bendir, or violin. Additionally, there is the opportunity to make music together with other students during the ensemble course. For those who love singing, there is even a Balkan choir (for adults).

In addition to the regular courses, this season also offers exciting workshops with inspiring guest teachers who are eager to share their expertise. Our regular teachers are active musicians who are directly involved in live music performances. They emphasize achieving immediate playing results and the joy of making music, rather than focusing solely on theoretical music studies. Nevertheless, our teachers are well-trained to provide students with the necessary music theory. They combine different teaching methods, such as playing music by ear or from sheet music, allowing students to further develop their instrumental studies.

We are looking forward to it and hope to welcome you soon to the 'Muziekateliers' at De Centrale!
