From Sunday to Saturday, 9 to 15 August, the Chemnitz Municipal Music School and the Association of Friends and Supporters of the Chemnitz Municipal Music School e.

Throughout the week, participants and audience members can look forward to a varied programme of virtuoso concerts and inspiring courses at the music school, located at Gerichtsstraße 1.
Firstly, all guitar enthusiasts are invited to hone their skills in masterclasses and an orchestra workshop, and to learn from experienced artists. Registration for the courses is required by 28 June via Stefan Scherf, deputy chair of the Friends’ Association, by email to stefanscherfgit(at)me.com or by telephone on 0151 53071298.
