Bali Mountain Retreat “music focus”.

Richard Kaal and Jay Bishoff have shared life-inspiring musical adventures in the mountains of Bali. Amazing musical evenings with locals in remote villages on the slopes of Gunung Batukaru (Mt. Batukaru) eventually led to….Music Focus Tours.
Basking in the shared spirit of music -- being enchanted by the people and the living land -- breathing in the refreshing Balinese cultural life -- and learning from rich, cross-cultural interaction: these are the ‘extreme sports’ of the spirit!

These two accomplished musicians have chosen to share this awesome cross-cultural experience with other musicians and/or music lovers. Music Focus Tour in Bali invites just 15-20 people to spend 7 - 10 days on Gunung Batukaru, far from the Bali tourist scene, for the holiday experience of a lifetime.

Experience first hand the true tradition of Balinese music, with:

  •   traditional performances away from the ‘staged’ tourist scene
  •   opportunities to write, play and perform with local musicians
  •   workshops
  •   jam sessions (amongst our group and with locals)
  •   recording facilities available to capture the magic of your holiday

Music lovers who don’t play an instrument or sing: welcome! You may find you are a player after a few days on the mountain…

Open-minded musicians of all levels of experience (beginners to consummate professionals): welcome!

Through the universal language of music, you will live the experience 95% of tourists may only occasionally photograph from a distance.
