Welcome to our student site!
I would like to personally invite young and upcoming string quartets and other string quartet-related ensembles to join our 2024 masterclasses and festival, which will take place in The Netherlands, Zeist from 17 until 30 August. It will be the 35th edition of our beloved chamber music festival!
Alexander Pavlovsky, Artistic Director Zeist Music Days
Two unique weeks of masterclasses and music-making in a wonderful location, learning from internationally renowned musicians, attending all festival concerts, and performing with your ensemble on three locations in the province of Utrecht and a final concert in Zeist. Masterclasses will take place daily for each ensemble. There are private spaces, study rooms and shared meals in a very relaxed atmosphere!
Daily lessons will help you take your repertoire to a new level, widen your knowledge of different styles and improve your ensemble sound and make it more personal. The masterclasses can also be an excellent means of preparation for an international competition or for a new concert season.
Teachers will include:
Mark Schumann, cello (Schumann Quartett)
Simone Gramaglia, viola (Quartetto di Cremona)
Alexander Pavlovsky & Sergei Bresler, violin (Jerusalem Quartet)
Quatuor Modigliani (August 24)
Marcin Sieniawski, cello (Amar Quartet)
‘A string quartet brings a very strong musical message and creates unforgettable and magical moments’
