On Sunday I had a masterclass from David Barnard It was pretty amazing!
Has anyone heard of him?
Who has everyone had a masterclass from? I have now had 3; 1 from David Barnard and 2 from Richard Meyrick.
Please share your experiences

Not heard of David Barnard - sorry
I've sat in on a masterclass with Ian Clarke (one of his flute days) and it was v. good. Impressed with the standard of the playing and he talked alot of sense too!
I had the opportunity to play 'Hypnosis' written by Ian, with his accompanist.....very good and v. helpful (not in the masterclass, seperate thing).
I learnt alot on this day and it was a new experience for me.

The final concert was great!

Excuse the ignorance, what's a masterclass?

I did a report on one I attended a month or two back, with pianist Stephen Hough if you can refer back to it.




Its a sort of public lesson where someone famous (on whatever instrument) takes 3 or 4 students though a lesson on a work they have benn studying. Usually with a small audience, and often at a Music school or college. As mentioned in my earlier post the Stephen Hough one was a public one, and about 100-a!0 audience were present
