Masterclass Media Foundation

Students, music colleges, schools and all music lovers, now have the chance to be inspired and learn from masterclasses given by some of the world's greatest musicians.

The Masterclass Media Foundation is a charity that is creating a unique archive. The unforgettable and inspirational experience of being present when a great musician holds a masterclass is normally a privilege reserved for a handful of students. Now, many of these are available on DVD. With an estimated 30-40 hours of masterclasses being issued every year these form a teaching resource of priceless value for this and succeeding generations and a means by which the insights and genius of the world's great musicians of our time can be shared by students all over the world as well as being preserved for posterity.

Having attended several of these masterclasses, I have been amazed by the accuracy and truthfulness of the resulting DVDs. These are undoubtedly the best films of performance teaching that I have ever seen. ”
