✨ FAQ
What is a masterclass?
A masterclass is a special lesson where a student performs a piece of music in front of an audience, and an expert musician (the master) provides constructive feedback and guidance. It is a unique learning opportunity where students can benefit not only from the feedback they receive but also from observing the instruction and suggestions given to other students. This setting helps students to improve their skills and gain new insights into their music.

Who can take part in the masterclass?
Piano students of all levels can participate in the masterclass. An additional fee applies. Each student should prepare one piece of music to perform in front of an audience. This provides valuable feedback and experience in a masterclass setting, which is a rare opportunity for young musicians.
