In analogy to last year- the Academy continuing and developing the succesful model on the premises of the permanent berth in the University of the Arts in the historic part of the city of Bremen/Germany.

MoMo – from Monteverdi to Mozart
The conceptual design of the masterclass is oriented towards of the classical Academy idea: one-to-one coaching in the mornings, ensemble-workshops in the afternoons, Lectures about theoretical and practical aspects of historical performance are complementing and completing the practical work. The common thread is the consciousness for the requirements of musical performance in a historical context: starting from the creation of the score, questions about instrumentation, directing, pitch, intonation, improvisation. Participants receive private lessons from proven specialists as well as multidisciplinary lectures and coaching, they can participate in the discussions and lectures on the specific problems about the music and it's cultural context, then and now. An additional integration is the well established workshop 'Historic Brass'.
