  The final Baladi Blues Academy – Practice Session of the year.  Hosted by Guy Schalom and featuring the full Baladi Blues Ensemble.  

  For this final session of the year we will include a masterclass where (those who want to) can dance solo with the band and receive valuable feedback.  

  A unique opportunity to:

  – prepare for auditions, competitions and other performances
  – practice improvising with world-class Arabic musicians
  – gain a better understanding of Arabic dance music (classical, Baladi and other folk styles)
  – have fun, meet like-minded people and
  – take your dancing/musicianship to the next level

   This is what you can expect:

  -Plenty of time to practice beginnings, endings and tricky musical corners
  -Detailed and clear explanations about the music
  -YOUR choice of music (please ask in advance)
  -Valuable constructive feedback from the musicians
  – 4 hours of live music with the full Baladi Blues Ensemble
  -A supportive and empowering environment among like-minded people who put dance and music FIRST.
  -Limited numbers

  This challenging work requires supportive people who share our ethos. That ethos is critical to all our education and development work – the music and dance come first with no exceptions. 

  Cost: £65 for the full session 6pm-10pm
