2025 Summer Lyre Conference 
with Master Lyre Teacher Christian Giersch 

We are very happy to announce that the dates have been set for our 2025 Summer Lyre Conference with renowned lyrist and teacher, Christian Giersch, to be held at Camphill Village in Copake, New York.  

  • The conference will open with Registration on Friday afternoon, August 15th, followed by LANA’s Annual Members Meeting and official Opening Evening that will feature performances by local musicians and other lyrists, with a talk and musical offering by Christian.

  • The conference will then run for the subsequent four days of Saturday, August 16 – Tuesday, August 19th, and there will be a public sharing of music for the community on Tuesday evening, August 19th.

  • The plenum, evaluations, and closing will take place on Wednesday morning, August 20th.

  • And we are very pleased to announce that we will once again host a Youth Program that will run simultaneously with the adult conference and will be carried and conducted by Veronika Roemer

Please mark your calendars and plan to join us once again in beautiful upstate New York for our 2025 summer conference, which will be a wonderful preparation for the Centenary World Lyre Conference that will take place at the Goetheanum in the summer of 2026: Wednesday, July 29th – Sunday, August 3rd

On another note . . .
Have you read the Advent 2024 edition of Lyre Notes by LANA? Here is the link, in case you missed it.  In that issue, we were pleased to share an arrangement of a celebratory round, written by Christian Giersch in anticipation of the international conference in 2026, which will also be prominently featured at our summer conference in 2025!
