Northwest Alphorn Workshop and Festival

Join us in Leavenwoth, WA in the heart of the Cascade Mountains for an amazing musical learning and performing experience!  Players of all ages and abilities are welcome to attend, as we learn and play under the instruction of our international faculty.

A playful approach to Alphorn playing and Swiss/Bavarian traditions. Activities will include learning to yodel, playing Swiss/Bavarian field games, an alphorn logo contest, and performing as a group while wearing traditional German trachten. With the Alphorn, students will learn the basic skills of buzzing, breathing, and improvising. Older students, especially high schoolers, will be welcome to join the adult workshop for any of their sessions.
