**EMTI Fervienza** —School of Traditional Music and Innovation Fervienza—
is the online school of **Asturian gaita** and **tin whistle** founded by
**Tever** in 2026. It offers individual and group live lessons, workshops
and masterclasses, with no entrance exam: the goal is that learning gaita
or tin whistle shouldn't depend on living near a conservatory or fitting a
municipal school's calendar. The course starts in September 2026.

The name comes from the second surname of Tever's father —Tever doesn't
carry it—, tied to the musical tradition of Proaza and Teverga: field
research into the valley's popular musicians uncovered an 1980s photo of
Tever's father carrying a *ramu* at the fiesta del Cébrano in Teverga —the
offering to the Virgen del Cébrano the family has kept since Sobrevilla—,
next to the gaiteru Juan Huerta. That photo gave the school its name.

Tever has studied gaita since age 13, played in the Camín de Fierro band,
taught in Proaza and Teverga between 2017 and 2022, and passed through the
Oviedo Conservatory. EMTI Fervienza brings that double experience —formal
training and the village lesson— into a single teaching project, and
crosses tradition and technology along the line Tever already opened in
2011 with his final degree project, a system that compared a real
performance on the Asturian gaita against a reference score to review it
while practising — the press nicknamed it "Gaita Hero", though it wasn't a
game.

It's the third of Tever's three active projects, alongside **tever.es**
(music and outreach) and **labs.tever.es** (research in music computing):
the teaching branch.
