Master Classes

As part of our comprehensive music education philosophy, MCMS offers students the opportunity to participate in master classes each year.

Run by master musicians these master classes expose students to different teaching styles and approaches to their instrument and repertoire.

Students have the opportunity to play for and receive feedback in a group setting along with their peers.
