ETHNO Germany – an experience for musicians and dancers from all over the world.
At Castle Lichtenberg, Thallichtenberg, near Kusel, Rhineland-Palatinate.
The ruins of Castle Lichtenberg near Kusel (Palatinate) will provide once again a rustic yet fascinating scenery for musicians and dancers working side by side, creating breath-taking performances, where sound and movement merge together.
About 40 participants will share and explore diverse cultural backgrounds, learn and reinvent traditional music & dances and connect through the power of music & dance.
We will learn music in a peer-to-peer process, which means that everyone will teach and learn. The representatives of a culture will teach a song or a tune to the whole group. So, make sure to prepare yourself in advance for that.
Be it the big spaces of the castle area, the comfort & service of the youth hostel, the professional artistic mentors or the support from the enthusiastic organisers – participants will receive everything they need for days and nights full of music, dance and joy.
Be part of the ETHNO Germany experience and join our celebration of diversity and community!
