The Alexander Music School
AMS caters for both musicians and non-musicians. Non-musicians come for Alexander lessons, and to enjoy being part of the rural mountain community. Free
time can be spent enjoy mountain walks, swimming in the river, relaxing in local Spanish bars, or just contemplating the stunning scenery. The more
energetic find themesleves helping the locals cultivating the land using the traditional Moorish techniques. Day trips to Granada to visit the Alhambra
Palace are possible to arrange too.
For musicians, Cat offers lessons both without and applied to the instrument. Cat can also organize either small-scale, informal performances, or public
concerts, depending on each pupil’s wishes. Many musicians find it a very liberating experience, playing outside informally in the mountains, or to a small
group of listeners, made up of people that the musician has met and got to know during their time in Ferreirola.
