Due to the current unpredictable pandemic situation, we are not scheduling institutes at the moment. The Munich Institute generally takes place once a year in November. Please register for our newsletter to receive updates on scheduling as they arise.
This Piano Somatics Institute takes place at the Artetonal Schüle für Musik. There are ample practice facilities on site. Alan teaches in English and French; German and Spanish translation will be available. This institute is organized by Mario de la Vega, a longtime student of Alan who is now completing a Felenkrais Practitioner professional training program as well as his Piano Somatics Practitioner Certification.
Many relatively inexperienced pianists hesitate to attend an institute, feeling they are not good enough or not well-enough prepared. However, Alan Fraser insists that we are all here to learn and this approach can help all of us, no matter whether our program is well-prepared or in a shambles. Thus the Institute really is open to all interested pianists:
There is no limit to improvement!
This sample schedule may be modified to suit the needs of the group.
The Music School is located at Linprunstraße 35 / Rgb D–80335 München T 089 / 12 00 12 02, due south of the Olympic Stadium and due west of the English Garden, Munich's central park.
There are plenty of hotels in the area, and we also recommend airbnb.
No shortage of excellent restaurants in Munich. We will probably all eat at the Trattoria San Benno, only a two-minute walk from the school.
The active tuition fee covers a daily individual lesson, lecture and ATM, plus observation of other lessons. Passive listeners participate in all activites but receive no individual lesson. Feel free to combine active and passive days in a way that suits your schedule and your wallet.
