Event information
We’re delighted to welcome celebrated violinist Violaine Melancon to work with outstanding Guildhall string quartets in this free, public masterclass.
An artist deeply dedicated to the range of violin and chamber music repertoire, violinist Violaine Melançon is sought after both as a performer and pedagogue. She brings a sense of authenticity, curiosity, exploration and discovery to her interpretations, and enjoys presenting unusual gems of the duo repertoire. Violaine teaches at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University where she is Associate Professor of Violin. She regularly gives masterclasses and guest teaches at major peer institutions like the New England Conservatory in Boston, the Glenn Gould School in Toronto, the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS) and here at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
The session will last for 3 hours, but audience members are welcome to drop in at any time and they will be admitted at an appropriate moment.
Free, no tickets required
