Who teaches the Master Classes?
Master classes are offered by the full jury panel. At a time to be scheduled after your jury performance, you will go on stage in front of the full jury along with some jury members as indicated by the Director and a public exchange of suggestions, comments, criticism will take place in a very relaxed manner with the specific goal of trying to make you aware of what can be done to improve the quality of your performance and musical delivery. We all know how hard it is to play and no matter how well we can play, there is still more to learn. This kind of master classes has been very highly requested and it is granted only to a few contestants for time constraint. In fact the competition actually stops to give time to the master class. To be admitted to the master class you are recommended to write a statement explaining why you should be included in the master class.
