"Participating in the Traveling School's PlayJazz Workshop in conjunction with the Sa Pobla Jazz Festival in August 2013 was a phenomenal experience that far exceeded my expectations. The opportunity to learn from, and make music with, and hang out with so many highly qualified teachers and student musicians was wonderful. Everyone was very friendly and open and giving. And even though my language skills are very limited, I had no trouble interacting with all of the international teachers and students. (Certainly my ability to understand the universal language of music improved!) The material covered in the workshops was deep and broad and has provided me with copious material to study and review and internalize, and I am confident it will help make me a better musician. And besides all the wonderful classes, I felt blessed to be able to experience several moments of pure bliss, where I wasn't learning, or studying, or practicing, or struggling - I was simply making music and connecting at a very deep level with the music, my instrument and my fellow musicians. This workshop was a wonderful joy and I hope to return again and again!"

"Wonderful opportunity for people of all ages! My 15th year old son loved it last year and my 62 year old musician husband wants to participate this summer in Mallorca! An experience that should not be missed!"

"Can you review a jazz seminar? What about the experience of spending a whole week of August in the Balearic island of Majorca playing and and listening  MUSIC, and  enjoying the SEA!! After a full morning workshop session... you can just wear your bathing suit and go to the beach...:) this can be misunderstood as a holiday organized by a travel agency!! Sa Pobla is 20 minutes drive from the wonderful Majorcan beaches and its location is great for conducting a very well organized jazz workshop, which is not only part of a holiday, but a "journey" as well and such an experience of knowledge of the people and the territory, sharing and playing together with the professionals and  also with the "boy" of the town band. We participate to a workshop where the "teachers" are rather "facilitators"in a pure socratic spirit. This is special seminar-journey that you yourself take part as co-creator.  In summary an exemplary life experience in a beautiful environment of humanity, and (also) of beaches and sea ...
My girlfriend and I cannot miss this rare opportunity and gladly participate every year since the second edition of the Workshop in 2008."
