Schiff, the Teacher!

Piano Masterclass at the International Musicians Seminar

Schubert: Moments Musicaux

Not all fine musicians have the interest, capability, desire, or the dedication to pass – on their abilities to younger people, who want to have a career in music. My sense from this recording is that Andras Schiff is an exception!

Watch and listen to the video below: Note the patience, the sensitivity, and the commitment he shows to help the young student achieve an ever more wonderful interpretation. No subtle detail is skipped over; and when there is an improvement in one area, he moves immediately to another suggestion that can make the student so much more effective.

For me, this was inspiring! Tell me what you think of the following video at the comment area below the video.

And here is Schiff, helping another student:

Who's Hank

Hank Zauderer is a violinist and an artist. He regularly hosts an evening classical music program at NPR radio station KUSP in Santa Cruz, California. In the past he was a member of several symphony orchestras and chamber music groups. In particular, he loves the study of great composers and feels that music composition so often reflects the key events that took place in a composer's life.

Hank's taste includes the old Gregorian Chants and related religious works as well as music of the Baroque, Classical, and the Romantic period. Some of his favorites include Mahler, Edward Elgar, Leonard Bernstein, Igor Stravinsky, and Benjamin Britten.
