Svetlana Katchour has already played a wide variety of opera roles at many European opera houses and theatres. She captivates audiences with her youthful, fascinating appearance and the unmistakable quality of her exceptional voice. At the Chemnitz Opera House we experienced her as Violetta in La Traviata or Donna Anna in Don Giovanni and several other opera performances. She is characterised by her extraordinary versatility and variability. Tatjana Funk teaches piano at the Chemnitz Municipal Music School. Both musicians are close friends and entertain audiences at recitals with Russian music or classical melodies.

Body percussion and mental training workshop with Hakim Ludin

Location: Municipal Music School, Concert Hall
Admission: 5 euros (after registration)

With special body percussion exercises, you first learn to increase your ability to concentrate. Repetitions and variations lead to a positive learning effect and a "can do" experience. By playing together in a group, simple rhythms and rhythmic phrases are used to experience the "power of the group".

Hakim Ludin has developed a rhythm didactic method based on ancient rhythmic traditions from Asia, using a special syllabic language and clapping technique. This trains concentration and independence.

The trainer Hakim Ludin has decades of experience in teaching. His workshops are popular events with a high motivation factor for all participants.

As a live musician, he is one of the most progressive percussionists on the international scene. He has toured with Konstantin Wecker several times as a drummer and percussionist.
