First of all I wish to thank you for your interest in our multi-artistic
cultural vacation resort "HELLENIKON IDYLLION". I would also like to
provide you with further information which might inspire you to spend your
vacation here, as a combination of the work in your field of specialization and
of the ambient of ancient Greece. Our vacation resort is situated directly at
the sea shore, in a romantic garden, and it offers ideal conditions for
organizing open-air seminars and performances. Also, the ancient sites of
Delphi, Epidauros, Mycenae and Olympia are in the same region, to be visited on
a daily trip.

the costs for all other participants are subject to special arrangements. For
the remaining time of the visit, the instructor receives a discount on the

additional reduction or accommodation free of charge in exchange for some help
with the office work,in the garden, or in the house)
- you can make your own proposal to your group, concerning journey,

according to your wish, with or without a course. If you wish to personally visit our place (resort)
with this aim, you are welcome to do so.
Course participants:
As a course instructor you invite your participants mainly by yourself. In this purpose we will gladly provide you with
our colored information leaflets.
The way of presentating the contents of your course is up to your responsibility, it will
be included in my current program in a short form, though. This program
overview will be advertised in several newspapers and journals, in form of adds
and reports, as well as by posters on appropriate places - e.g., in the "Zeit"
(section "Creative vacations"), the "NMZ" (New Music
Newspaper), in all journals of the Schott-Editors with the section "Musiktreff"
(80.000 copies), and in the "Swiss Music Journal". Nevertheless, your
personal engagement and advertisement in your circle of friends remains of great
importance! The experience proves that the majority of the participants
has been gained this way.
