Project: LIVING SCHOOL WORKSHOP


Founded in 1992, Berlin's Living School Workshop was based on an idea from Franz de Byl (Flöz) and patronized by the Berlin Senate and the Charlottenburg - Wilmersdorf School of Music. The two principal teachers are Mack Goldsbury (saxophones) and Ernst Bier (drums). The workshop is directed towards music students and experienced amateurs of all ages.
