Klezmer Master Class
Details and Directions

Master Classes

This is a series of proper master classes held in Manchester. Previous master classes have attracted people from all over the place and it's a great opportunity to pick up tips from some top musicians.

Classes are held on Sunday afternoons and last about 3 hours.

Previous Classes

January 2003 master class

Lunchtime Concert

In some previous workshops there has been a free concert between 13:00-14:00.

Food

Some of the venues we have used have food available.

In central Manchester there are several rather fab "Curry Cafes" which do a great meal for less than 5 quid. They do a special lamb dish called "Nihari" only on Sundays which will definitely keep you going through the afternoon... See Manchester Session for details.
