FENGAROS MUSIC VILLAGE 2019
JULY 25TH TO 30TH / KATO DRYS
Fengaros Music Village is held for the sixth consecutive year at Kato Drys village in the Larnaca district and consists of eleven music, theater and radio production workshops, as well as an artist residency. Artists from Cyprus, Greece, England, Germany and Holland will conduct the workshops, proposing alternative methods of learning and creating.
The event has become an institution and is one of the most important meetings of musicians from Cyprus and abroad, on the island. During its years of existence, the Fengaros Music Village has functioned as the "birthplace" of many musical (and not only) collaborations and projects.
The workshops will take place daily during the morning and afternoon hours, with evening concerts and presentations, open to the public, will complete the daily schedule.
Goals of Fengaros Music Village:
-
The implementation of educational, interactive workshops, instructed by artists of international caliber in the areas of modern and traditional creation. The themed sections of each workshop intend to approach the arts in a broad, yet effective way, whilst concentrating on original and innovative aspects of artistic development.
-
The encouragement of both organised and spontaneous performances executed by students and instructors.
-
The productive exchange of ideas and experiences between artists, students and participants of varied backgrounds.

The creation of a long-lasting, hybrid artistic community, characterised by solidarity, both in the field of collective creativity and in the production / distribution of artistic work.
