Ayasa Masterclass with Adam Maalouf

We would like to welcome you on Tuesday the 15th of August from 19:00 till 21:00 for a handpan workshop given by Adam Maalouf at Ayasa Instruments in Almere.

Level: Intermediate-Advanced (Beginners are welcome)

This workshop will focus on learning techniques, rhythms and compositions in Maalouf’s “10 Finger” style. Students will learn how each finger may be used to conjure a wide range of tonal qualities and complex melodic patterns from the instrument. The compositions covered in this workshop draw influence from musical styles of the Middle East, India and beyond.

Handpans will be provided by Ayasa Instruments (D Minor / D Kurd) to participate in the workshop.

The workshop is for 2-3 hours, no break. 19:00 till 21:00+

Please do not arrive before 18:45
