Instrument masterclasses

Masterclasses are a chance to learn straight from working professionals. We invite touring and session musicians to the island to run classes for drummers, guitarists, bass players, keyboard players and other instrumentalists, covering technique, performance and what it really takes to work in the music industry.

Students see and hear the very best at close range, ask their own questions and leave inspired to practise.
