This workshop is a rare opportunity to learn from one of the world’s top classical mandolinists. Carlo Aonzo of Savona, Italy – performer, recording artist, conductor, arranger, musicologist and instructor – has led many such sessions in Europe and in the U.S. Now here is a world-class workshop you can attend without leaving town.

The workshop, designed to benefit intermediate to advanced players, will include technical exercises, some music to work on as a group, and an interesting historical presentation.
