SUMMARY:BDB "NaturAlp" with Balthasar Streiff
DESCRIPTION:The alphorn also needs to be played lightly and easily! – This course is aimed at anyone with at least intermediate experience on the alphorn. We look at the technical features of our natural horns\, also in comparison to brass instruments with valves and slides. Because the sheet music always tempts us to play in an unfavorable way\, we start without notes and thus train our auditory skills. This is followed by free playing and improvisation before we turn to notated pieces. And finally\, we look at how and what is best practiced at home.

SUMMARY:Alphorn course for advanced students with Balthasar Streiff
DESCRIPTION:Soft\, bright sound. Light play in all positions. Play for a long time without getting tired. Inspired music-making. The course is aimed at all those who have already taken their first steps in alphorn playing and have mastered a (small) standard repertoire. We search for new worlds of sound in the instrument and also discover the potential that lies within us. Methodically correct practicing is just as important as the ability to listen to yourself. We improvise and cultivate group play. At the end\, we organize a small concert in the square.

SUMMARY:2nd International Alphorn Meeting in the Netherlands
DESCRIPTION:At this meeting\, we practise a lot and cover new things. At the end of the day\, we organize a concert in the city center with all the participants. We introduce the instrument to the audience and explain what it is used for\, how it is built and how it is played. Many people know nothing about the alphorn. On the day there is coffee\, tea\, drinks and a simple lunch. There is plenty of time to exchange experiences and new things are introduced during the breaks. You can also try out other alphorns. There are also many alphorns\, adapters between F and F sharp and many types of mouthpieces from different alphorn makers (Bader\, Eichenberger\, Bernatone\, …) to try out. An interesting day with lots of new things to try out. Musically we rehearse new pieces and give hot tips for playing. Big news. We have the first wedge mouthpiece from Canada for alphorn. A warm welcome! Prerequisite for participation is some experience with wind instruments.

SUMMARY:BDP "The mountain is calling" for alphorn players with Berthold Schick
DESCRIPTION:The educational week The mountain calls for alphorn players focuses on making music together in an alphorn ensemble three times a year. For five days\, a repertoire is worked on and the basics of alphorn playing – breathing\, embouchure\, tone formation and intonation – are refreshed and deepened using pieces of different styles. In addition\, instrument-specific features are addressed and new literature and impulses for practicing at home are provided. \nExcursions and concerts in the southern Black Forest region\, where the repertoire is presented\, round off the program. \n\n\nThe online seminar series The Mountain Calls with Bertold Schick is a condensed version and digital supplement to the educational week of the same name for alphorn players at the BDB Academy. Each workshop focuses on an alphorn composition written by Bertold Schick. Bertold Schick presents exercises on the basics of alphorn playing and introduces the new composition on this basis. Participants expand and consolidate their skills in the areas of playing methodology\, breathing\, embouchure\, tone formation and can ask questions in the chat. At the end of each workshop\, the participants have not only increased their

SUMMARY:Arosa Alphorn Academy. Traditional\, modern and contemporary with Lukas Briggen
DESCRIPTION:Course for very advanced students as part of the Arosa Music Course Weeks.\nLukas Briggen takes over from Balthasar Streiff in 2024. Information based on previous year\, update to follow.\nFor many musicians\, the alphorn has the significance of a second instrument. The pure tuning and the relative lack of interesting scores have so far limited professionalization. But times are changing: the trend towards a radical expansion of the use of the alphorn has begun. The course takes this fact into account by rehearsing various challenging pieces.\nThe prerequisite for the course is that you already play the alphorn or a brass instrument at a high\, semi-professional or professional level. This is how we work in the technical\nThe alphorn is a musical instrument in which the individual skills are transferred to the sound and playing culture of the alphorn. This then leads to perfecting the group playing in terms of sound\, dynamics and intonation.\n\nPlaying long and high with great ease is on the wish list of most wind players. We will therefore focus on clarinet blowing\, a technique that has lost importance with the introduction of valves\, but which is of great significance for the alphorn. This is also taught in short individual lessons during the week.\n\nTopic:\n\nHigh\, light playing on the alphorn\, sound culture in group playing.\nFor brass players: Transferring individual skills to the characteristics of the alphorn.\nRehearsing new\, challenging pieces.\nThere is an opportunity to get to know the Büchel.\n\nTarget group\nVery advanced amateurs on alphorn\, students\, professional musicians on brass instruments\n\nForm of teaching\n\nIntensive group lessons\, also phases with individualization and individual support. Also depends somewhat on the needs of the participants. \nA small collaboration with other brass classes present is planned. \n

SUMMARY:BDP "The mountain is calling" for alphorn players with Berthold Schick
DESCRIPTION:The educational week The mountain calls for alphorn players focuses on making music together in an alphorn ensemble three times a year. For five days\, a repertoire is worked on and the basics of alphorn playing – breathing\, embouchure\, tone formation and intonation – are refreshed and deepened using pieces of different styles. In addition\, instrument-specific features are addressed and new literature and impulses for practicing at home are provided. \nExcursions and concerts in the southern Black Forest region\, where the repertoire is presented\, round off the program. \n\n\nThe online seminar series The Mountain Calls with Bertold Schick is a condensed version and digital supplement to the educational week of the same name for alphorn players at the BDB Academy. Each workshop focuses on an alphorn composition written by Bertold Schick. Bertold Schick presents exercises on the basics of alphorn playing and introduces the new composition on this basis. Participants expand and consolidate their skills in the areas of playing methodology\, breathing\, embouchure\, tone formation and can ask questions in the chat. At the end of each workshop\, the participants have not only improved their skills\, but also have a new piece in their repertoire. The new piece is included in the participation fee.

SUMMARY:Alphorn day on the Glattalp with Alphorn in the Alps
DESCRIPTION:Get to know the alphorn in its natural habitat. From Zurich I will take you to the most beautiful places in the Alps and show you how to play the alphorn. In a short time you will learn the basics of alphorn blowing – no previous musical knowledge is required. Listen to your breath turn into good vibes and the rocks begin to sing. It’s mighty fun and opens your ears to the soundscape of the mountains! Unlike other alphorn courses\, you will discover the alphorn not in a musty practice room but where it belongs. For the day we provide an alphorn for all participants. \nGlattalp is not only a scenic highlight. The mountain lake and the echo amidst the steep rock faces create an incomparable alphorn experience. One of the coldest places in Switzerland in winter\, a visit is also refreshing in summer. After a one-hour drive to Muotathal\, a cable car takes us to 1852 meters above sea level. We can now play the alphorn at one of the echo points or during an entertaining walk around the Glattalpsee. For lunch\, a cozy mountain restaurant is a good choice; alternatively\, we bring the food ourselves. \nAlphorn rental and mountain railroad included in the price.
