For Ye Violls

February 5, 2025 @ 3:30 pm - February 8, 2025 @ 4:00 pm

An intensive workshop for viol players at all levels in Albuquerque NM, Feb. 5 – 8, 2025.

Status: Waiting List

All spots have now been filled. Submit a registration form (no deposit required) to secure a spot on the waiting list.

For Ye Violls presents an intimate four-day workshop for viol players at all levels featuring six-part consort repertoire from England, Italy, and the low countries. Each class will be limited to six players with three classes each day, one-to-apart. There will be free time each afternoon with an optional “siesta class”, sightseeing, or a real siesta, and after-dinner playing welcome to all.

 

The workshop’s three instructors, Lawrence Lipnik, David Morris, and Mary Springfels are among the most outstanding coaches in the field. Each tutor has chosen a repertoire, with play-in and faculty concert on the final afternoon of the workshop. There will be 8 formal sessions, plus a final reading and faculty concert. While the instrumental ensembles may be fixed for the weekend, every player will work with every instructor.

All breakfasts and opening night dinner are included. We’re on our own for both lunch and dinner Thursday and Friday, and lunch on Saturday. The Lodge’s Garduños Restaurant is poised to serve us from their not-pricey menu (see it at https://tinyurl.com/yprsp9pv ) for those lunches and dinners, but other restaurants are only minutes away.

Getting Here (And Back):

Nativo Lodge location is located on the very north end of Albuquerque at 6000 Pan American Fwy. NE.. If you’re driving on I-25, get off on San Mateo Av. and you’ll see it right there, but your GPS will navigate you through the maze of ramps. If you’re flying in, you’ll need to find a transportation option at ABQ airport—it’s a straight shot up I-25—but if you let us know your itinerary well in advance we may be able to pick you up. If you’re flying out, try to find flights that leave ABQ 6 pm or later.

Registration:

All spots have now been filled. Submit a registration form (no deposit required) to secure a spot on the waiting list.

The registration deadline (below) is a bit earlier than usual because I’ll have been in Argentina for the last half of January and in Tierra del Fuego, hiking and out of communication with the wider world, from January 23 to February 2. So I’ve got to get this all wrapped up well in advance of that trip. (I’ll have lots of photos.)

Please print and return the registration form with a non-refundable deposit of $100.
Registration deadline: Saturday, December 21, 2024.
