Låtkursen at Ekebyholm

This summer Ekebyholm’s castle will yet again open its gates and park and welcome the 49th Låtkursen at Ekebyholm. Five intense days of enjoying tunes and playing together.

This year’s course dates are June 22 – 26.
Registration opens: March 5 at 12:00

Låtkursen at the Ekebyholm Castle, Rimbo, has been an institution in Swedish folk music life since its inception in 1976 – a mecca for nyckelharpa enthusiasts worldwide. For five intense days and nights, we fill the 17th-century Ekebyholm Castle and its park with musicians of all ages from across the globe.

During the lessons, participants get the opportunity to develop their skills at their own level and pace, expand their tune repertoire, work on bowing and playing techniques, and enhance groove, rhythm, and ensemble playing. The schedule also includes lessons in singing and dancing. Beyond the planned sessions, there will be song and music gatherings with teachers and fellow participants, as well as time for individual practice, spontaneous playing sessions, dancing, and singing. You’ll also have the chance to explore various aspects of the instruments.

The course also features evening concerts, giving participants the chance to meet other professional folk musicians and hear them perform and share their stories in an intimate setting.

Lessons are taught by ear. We welcome beginners, amateurs, and advanced nyckelharpa and fiddle players. Many previous participants have become some of Sweden’s most well-known professional folk musicians. Both participants and teachers speak of the special ”Ekebyholm spirit” – the course is so much more than just learning tunes!

During the course, participants will enjoy:

• Highly regarded teachers for chromatic nyckelharpa, fiddle and vocals
• Eight group lessons with various teachers (60-90 minutes each)
• Two individual lessons (30 minutes each)
• Two group lessons in folk singing (60 minutes each)
• Access to a nyckelharpa luthier for instrument checks, maintenance, and minor repairs
• Teacher concerts and evening performances with special guest artists
• Student concert
