COST & BOOKING
The fees, listed below, cover all group teaching, concerts and activities at the Summer School. This year it is possible to stay at the school at which the Summer School will take place. This includes simple accommodation and all meals (but no extra drinks and snacks). There are therefore two sets of prices:

2) All the Summer School activities, but excluding accommodation and meals.
The accommodation on site is from the 26th till Monday 31st July. The beds do not have linen nor bedding, so please bring your own sleeping bag or bedding.
For participants who wish to organise their own accommodation: a list of hotels etc. is available on the accommodation page.
Participants who register between 1st April and 15th May 2017 will obtain the early bird discount.
