Alphorn building week 19/2024
Ossingen - Wetter Instrumente Steinerstr. 27, Ossingen, SchweizMake your own alphorn from A to Z.

The alphorn is in three parts, its basic pitch in F sharp/G flat. The course begins with an individual preparation day by arrangement and continues with six course days in the course workshop in Ossingen.
Büchel course with sound hike in the upper Toggenburg (with Balthasar Streiff)
Klangwelt Toggenburg - Feuerwehrlokal Hauptstrasse 1, Alt St. Johann, SchweizThe Büchel is considered the little brother of the alphorn. Technically more demanding to play, its sound exudes a fascinating roughness. Melodically, we take a slightly different approach to the alphorn: the Büchel can be played in several voices, but it is also perfectly suited as a call and communication instrument in a simple sense, even without notes. In addition to the correct embouchure technique, we learn to play traditional and self-invented Büchelgsätzli in the middle of nature. The course
