International Master Course ofor Strongs, accordion and Chamber Music
(15-25 August 2002)

The Janowiec Course in Musical Interpretation is a ten-day international course in interpretation for violinists, viola players, cellists, bassists, accordionists and chamber ensembles, led by distinguished teachers from Poland, Europe and America. The course is addressed to students of secondary music schools, college students and graduates. All classes will be held in Janowiec castle which was built in Mediaeval times and is now undergoing restoration. The castle is the perfect site for creative work. It is quiet and serene and offers beautiful views from the castle hill out to the Vistula ravine and Janowiec's twin town, Kazimierz Dolny. The concerts accompanying the course will be the perfect occasion to present the young adepts of instrumental music to visitors to nearby spas.
