The day will feature masterclasses and performances with Guildhall's Viola Professors (including Matthew Jones, Scott Dickinson and Sarah-Jane Bradley) and performances from current students, as well as masterclasses for visiting violists.

During our event, we will host legendary violist and composer Garth Knox, who will lead a workshop on his unique approach to contemporary viola technique through his own composition for viola ensemble, the "Marin Marais Variations".
