The ‘Colla de Dolçaines i Percussió UV’ (Group of Shawms and Percussion) resumes its activity in the Sanchis Guarner Room of the Faculty of Language Studies, Translation and Communication next 15 February, until 23 May.

People interested in taking part in the university training can register without the need to take a level exam after the creation of a new beginners' group this academic year, aimed at students with a basic knowledge of music reading, who want to start playing traditional music instruments.

The 'colla' group, the main group, is aimed at students with previous knowledge of playing the shawm (dulzaina) and/or traditional percussion. Rehearsals for both groups will be every Thursday, from 18:00 to 19:00, and from 19:00 to 21:00, respectively.

Candidates must be students of the Universitat de València, with a maximum age of 28 years, previous knowledge of dulzaina and/or traditional percussion performance, in the case of the 'colla' group, and with basic training in music reading for the beginners' level. To complete the registration, you will have to fill in the form online, available on the Colla's website.

Registration period will remain open for the whole academic year until all places are filled. Therefore, pre-registration applications will be accepted throughout the whole four-month period, subject to availability of places.

Under the management of Juan Ramon Martí i Chulià, the Colla was born in 2016 with the aim of being a stable, representative and innovative group in the field of traditional music, always from a formative point of view.
