* an open and welcoming environment of cross- cultural inquiry

Participants typically represent a wide array of interests and backgrounds:
* college music teachers
* committed amateurs
* professional performers
* jazz musicians
* K-12 teachers
* composers
* non-musical academic specialists and students

Each of the workshops is demanding, but no previous experience with any of the featured repertoires is expected or required.
