Dear Friends of Öland and the Lute

Although one should never say never, the lute course in 2004 seems to be the last one under my direction.

I thank you all — participants, collegues and the staff of Kackelstugan — for good cooperation.

All the best to all of you

Stefan

Report in pictures from the Lute Course 2004

David performed a daily dia-show

Beppo, following the instructions from David, cut a rose

Eskil brought some of his beautiful Jönsson lutes

Charles started the day with Händel and ended it with telling us ghost stories

The daily solo lessons
(here Benjamin, getting some headless instructions)

were followed by ensemble sessions.

Jürg and Thomas

studied Corigniani with Nadine playing the viol.

English lute trios, arranged by Stewart, played by Stefan, Jürg and Thomas

The final party was in the hands of Thea

This eye was watching us

as well as this one!

Do you have ideas for future courses and/or festivals on Öland, please let me know!
