Gran Canaria Suzuki Workshop

VIOLIN & CELLO

Information, prices and activities

Born from a common dream and with great enthusiasm, we are happy to announce this Suzuki Summer Course in Gran Canaria. An unique island for many things. Its people, its culture, its immense beaches, its climate or its mountains full of life,

We believe in music as a universal language capable of uniting cultures and helps improving the society. Therefore we would like to invite Suzuki families from all over the world to participate in this new course. We would like to spread the Suzuki Method on the island like it has already grow in many places and made thousands of families enjoy through its music

Throughout our training in the Suzuki Method, we have met great teachers of pedagogy and life who have guided and inspired us. On this occasion (and we hope many others) we are very happy to announce that CLAUDIO FORCADA, ISABEL MOREY SUAU, KOEN RENS AND EULÁLIA SUBIRÁ will be part of this year's cast of teachers.

Traveling with Cellos


Some airlines such as Iberia, Air Europa or Easyjet, have special policies to be able to carry musical instruments in the plane cabin as carry-on hand baggage. We believe that cellos up to the size of 1/2 (approx. 110 cm high), could be transported with these airlines. 

The conditions may vary depending on the origin and airline, or if the flight is a chartered flight. We recommend you to check the exact conditions with the company with which you wish to fly. As a rule of thumb; If guitars are allowed as hand luggage, cellos up to this size (approx. 1/2) should also be allowed.

Low cost carriers like Ryanair and Vueling usually request an extra ticket to transport any instrument that is larger than the dimensions established for hand luggage.

We are trying to get cellos of various sizes to make it easier for those families who need it to attend the course. The renting cost and the conditions will be announced later. Please contact us if you need an instrument and we will try to help you: grancanariasuzukiworkshop@gmail.com
