Dorothy Taubman was an American teacher and lecturer who founded the Taubmann approach. The focus is to analyze invisible motions beneath a virtuoso technique and use this knowledge to overcome technical limitations and performance-related injury! Jarred Dunn will lead us in this discussion of a fascinating teaching philosophy!

In this Virtual Masterclass we focus on the music of Bach and Brahms! 2 of the "3 B's" (Beethoven being the 3rd) these composers wrote music of incredible depth and meaning. A transcription of Bach's 4th organ sonata and Brahms Op.39 waltzes to be featured!
