    Burg Orchestra

    Welcome to the 2nd Burg Orchestra Camp in the Palatinate 2026

    We are happy to invite you to take part in the second International Castle Orchestra in June 2026 - a music camp for all generations aged 15 and over.

    The camp will take place from Wed. 03. to Sun. 07. June 2026 at Castle Lichtenberg in the village of Thallichtenberg in the Western-Pfalz.

    We will embark on a musical journey through the world! We learn songs from each other, from person to person and by ear. We will be supported by experienced ETHNO mentors:

    • Matthias Stoffel (melody)
    • Bernhard Vancek (wind instruments)
    • Tayfun Ates (percussion)
    • Christoph Schönbeck (harmony)
    • Stephanie Kobori (vocals)

    The Burg Orchester is aimed at musicians from the traditional folk and jazz scene as well as classically oriented musicians who are looking for new and refreshing motivation. 

    All instruments and singers, as well as amateur and professional musicians are welcome to join. The Burg Orchester is about being together, learning from each other and meeting different generations and cultures.

    If you would like to arrange your own accommodation, you will be responsible for the cost of full board at the youth hostel. These costs are at your own expense.

    Participation fee

    The participation fee is between €350 and €500 – please estimate how much you can contribute for your participation. This includes 4 nights' accommodation with full board, musical accompaniment by the mentors, and organization. Please note that the cost for a single person is approximately €350. We are still waiting for confirmation of possible smaller sponsorship.

    1. Participation fee - between €350 and €400 - This fee covers basic costs and only allows mentors to receive a basic remuneration for their work. We take into account the geographical distance of the participants, travel expenses, and different living situations.
    2. Generous participation fee - between €400 and €500 (or more) - The generous amount covers the costs of accommodation and meals for one participant, as well as the remuneration of the artistic mentors and the organization team. The amount also supports participants who are unable to contribute as much.
    3. If you arrange your own accommodation, the participation fee is between €150 and €200.
    4. We have 2 scholarships available. If you would like to apply for one, please send us an email explaining why you need a scholarship.
