Camac Germany is looking forward working with Nikolaz Cadoret, Ruth Rojahn, and her class at the Musikschule der Hofer Symphoniker. The music school is in fact the only one in Germany to be run by a professional orchestra, and is famous both for its high artistic and pedagogic level, and its contribution to the wider community. Classes are available for everyone, from babies to adults and OAPs. The instrumental roster covers almost every classical instrument, and there is special focus on playing music together in groups. The music school also provides around three hundred performances a year for the residents of Hof to enjoy – including ours, on June 29th!

Your lever harp summer is not complete without the Rencontres internationales de harpes celtiques, which take place annually in Dinan, Brittany. You can enjoy a wonderful programme from stars of the lever harp from all over the world, and playing everything from Latin jazz, to rock! There is also a great variety of courses, which you can explore and sign up for here.
Dinan is not far from our ateliers in Mouzeil, and we always bring a particularly extensive lever harp exhibition to the festival’s salon des luthiers. You’ll find us there between July 12th – 14th, at no less than the 36th edition of the festival.

Camac is sponsoring Corrina Hewat‘s appearance at the Somerset Harp Festival, which takes place in Parsippany NJ between July 18 – 21, 2019. Our US distributors, the Virginia Harp Center, will also be in situ at the exhibition throughout the weekend.
Corrina’s work is at the heart of the dynamic new folk scene in Scotland, fusing traditional music with jazz, pop and other contemporary in highly creative ways. Following studies with Maire Ni Chathasaigh in Jazz & Contemporary Music (Leeds), Corrina has been widely-recognised for her work with bands Bachué (with pianist David Milligan), Shine (with Mary Macmaster & Alyth McCormack), and The Unusual Suspects, also with David Milligan. She has been commissioned to write several large-scale works for instrumental and choral ensembles, has directed a wide variety of shows, and recorded over 30 albums in the last twelve years. She is a core tutor on the Traditional Music Degree courses at Newcastle University and the RSAMD in Glasgow, and her sell-out workshops and courses on harmony singing, arranging and vocal techniques have proved to be a source of inspiration for countless singers and musicians.
