Gain priceless insight into how Canadian violinist James Ehnes prepares for a performance in this masterclass featuring our Sydney Symphony Fellows

James Ehnes is a truly remarkable violinist, with a rare combination of stunning virtuosity, serene lyricism and an unfaltering musicality whether in orchestral, chamber or solo repertoire.

In this masterclass he shares performance skills and musical insights with the next generation of Australian string players – and you can be there to experience it too.

Designed as an intimate and engaging learning experience, our masterclasses provide a unique alternative to a traditional concert experience. From your seat in the Choir Galleries and Stage Boxes you will gain a unique perspective – literally – of the artists and the learning process.

Presented by Sydney Symphony Orchestra
