Ethno Sicily

Ethno Sicily is a musical, intercultural and international project hosted by Alkantara Fest, which brings together young musicians to share the traditional music of their cultural background. Based on non-formal and peer-to-peer teaching, each musician teaches their musical piece to the group through oral transmission. They will gather for 7 days for various activities, which include rehearsals for musical creations (standard Ethno music daily workshops), a final concert with the whole group featured in the program of the international folk and world music festival Alkantara Fest, jam sessions with artists involved in the festival and leisure time for excursions and visits to the surrounding historical sites, including the sea and Mount Etna.
