Hi! I’m an german student who want to study galician folk music. I only play a little bit of piano… Can I study in your music school without any knowleges in galician ancient music?

Otherwise, I must say I like Ugia’s music. In Germany we like so much your record: Ti serés o meu pecado, great music. Congratulations Ugia for your new record: Eterno navegar…

Hi Christian,

It’s important to know some music to get in the school but more importatn is to have natural skills and interest to learn.

There are four levels and subjects of instruments -traditional percusion, bagpipe, flute, button accordion, hurdy-gurdy (drehleier) – history of popular galician music (just one course of one year) and solfa (four years).

The lessons are in Galician language, so you would need to, at least, understand it.

And there is a exam to entry.
The oficial dates are from 15 September to the 1 de October you have to apply to get the inscription. The 3-4 October, the entry exams and the 11 the starting of the academical year (until June).

Lessons are once a week on saturdays from October to June.
We organize short course along the year too.
You need your own instrument.

For further information, email us at info@folque.com as it seems your email doesn’t work for us to write you directly.

Faithfully,

aCentral Folque.

PS: by the way, Ugia Pedreira is not the same person as Uxia (Senlle), another artist  who just released “Eterno Navegar”.
