Shawn Mativetsky Presents First Annual Tabla Workshop!

Hosted by the Schulich School of Music at McGill University in Montreal, the first annual Summer Tabla Workshop will be presented by Shawn Mativetsky from July 4-10, 2011.

During this intensive hands-on workshop, participants will learn tabla in the tradition of the Benares (Varanasi) gharana. The workshop is open to all levels, beginner, intermediate and advanced. The schedule includes daily group practice sessions, four classes and two listening/repertoire sessions. Students will live and breathe tabla for the duration of the workshop!

Exponent of the Benares gharana, and disciple of the legendary Pandit Sharda Sahai, Shawn Mativetsky is a highly sought-after tabla performer and educator.

Tuition is 250$ and is required by June 27. Students must provide their own tabla. If you don't already own a set, please contact Shawn, and he will be more than happy to assist you in locating one.
