Additional information > Workshops

The SIBE Congress will offer the opportunity to conduct a series of workshops, which will be scheduled to take place simultaneously.

We will inform you shortly of the day and time slots for these sessions so that you can register in advance, as places are limited. At present, the following workshops have been confirmed:

Gamelan

The gamelan is an indigenous instrumental ensemble from Bali (Indonesia), composed of bronze percussion instruments, gongs, and drums, played in a group. In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to discover and experiment with the fascinating sounds of the gamelan. A collective and truly unique musical experience.

Janggu

The janggu are the main instruments of traditional Korean culture, hourglass-shaped drums with a powerful sound that have been used for centuries. We invite you to experience a percussion session to immerse yourself in a different musical culture, learn new rhythmic patterns, and explore another way of making music.

Reactable

Would you like to create music with an instrument of the future? In this workshop, we will explore the reactable, an electronic, intuitive, and collaborative musical instrument. Conceived and developed by a research team from the Pompeu Fabra University of Barcelona in 2007, the reactable reacts sonically when we place and move pieces on its luminous surface, and it has been used by artists such as Björk and Coldplay. Come and discover a new way of making music.
