St Albans Strings Workshop 27th – 29th May 2022
We are planning to conduct the St Albans Strings workshop in 2022 and we have reserved the Courthouse at St Albans for the last weekend in May 2022.
To reserve your place please register here. However, due to the uncertain nature of things at the moment, we will NOT ask for payment until we are certain that the workshop will go ahead. When you register we will give you access to the music for the workshop and keep in touch with you.
You can find suggestions for accommodation here.
Once again, our conductor will be the very popular Paul Taylor.
Strings at St Albans
This unique workshop for violin, viola, cello and double bass players will be held in and around the historic Courthouse in the picturesque village of St Albans, NSW. Surrounded by Hawkesbury sandstone cliffs the tiny village of St Albans nestles alongside the Macdonald River. The area is rich in colonial history, with many historic buildings including the Settlers Arms Inn (1836) and Price Morris Cottage, historic cemeteries, little stone churches, and much more.

Our Vision
Music is a vital part of living and learning. If you come to this workshop you will find musicians of varying standards who enjoy making music a daily part of their life and who love to learn. In particular we love to play music in ensembles so that we can learn from, and support each other building enduring friendships. This workshop is especially designed for learners of all standards and in particularly the late starters.
The cost for this workshop is $245 and proceeds from the St ALBANS STRINGS weekend workshop will help support music education in the local MacDonald primary school.
