Course content of the International Masterclasses

Learn – experience – be there!

The idea behind the masterclasses is intensive learning in a tranquil atmosphere. The course includes daily individual lessons with the professors. These lessons are supplemented by accompaniment and chamber music. Flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, and bassoon are offered. Preparation for auditions (orchestral excerpts, etc.) can be part of the program.

In addition to the week-long masterclass, several concert events will be organized at different locations.

Target group

Students, pupils wishing to study music, and young professionals make up the circle of active participants.
The number of participants is limited to 8 people per subject to allow for intensive instruction.
