Every morning at the festival there will be a joint warm-up session, where one of the guest artists will share their warm-up routines and experiences with the piccolo.

The warm-up class is a good way to start the day. Here you will meet all the participants and teachers and you will together set a positive mood for the rest of the day.

The workshops and lectures provides the opportunity to research and immerse oneself in topics that often doesn’t get prioritized, because of a lack of time in normal piccolo lessons. This could include breathing, body posture and awareness or maintenance of the instrument. In 2023 we will present you the following workshops:

Mental training Workshop with Ulrich Ghisler. 

At the concerts at Nordic Piccolo Festival you will hear a lot of different piccolo repertoire, old as well as new. It is our intention to present a completely new work for the piccolo each year, written by a Nordic composer.
