Master classes

Piano | Voice | Violin | Guitar | Flute | Chamber Music

In addition to the centuries-old Viennese musical tradition of having the finest performers play on its stages, the last years have given rise to a new tradition, which may be seen as equally important: to invite master performers with an international reputation to pass on their skill and knowledge, their professionalism and experience in the form of seminars, courses and master classes. The Vienna Summer Music Academy offers master classes for professionals and students – children and adults who wish to perfect their performance in many specialties.

The master classes are aimed at musicians and amateurs with some background of musical education. The participants will learn about the basics of different musical styles, the repertoire of the Austrian composers and the traditions of Viennese musical culture. There will be a possibility to get acquainted with the principles of stage performance in theory and practice, to learn new exercises for technique building, sound development, hand positions and posture, expression and stage presence, as well as many inspirations for the interpretation of musical works.

The master classes are divided into different age groups:

students from 6- 12 years
young performers from 13- 18 years
musicians from 19- 25 years

For the duration of the master class, individual lessons and lessons in small groups (up to 6 students) are offered. Practice rooms for individual practice, preparation and warm – up will be provided for the participants. We also offer the possibility to perform on stage in a final concert and to attend a crash course.

On completion of the course, participants will be awarded a certificate on which the amount of hours and the course subject are indicated.
