Masterclass Student Masters
Jan Vogler Workshop

Final Concert

Johann Sebastian Bach's suites for unaccompanied cello
with Jan Vogler and his cello class

The workshop for young up-and-coming talented classical musicians which Jan Vogler has hosted in cooperation with the Stiftung Schloss Neuhardenberg foundation in the castle grounds every year since 2015 will have a very special format in its anniversary year. It will be a particularly reduced event and will be dedicated to and focus only on the cello, and the probably most famous compositions for this instrument: Johann Sebastian Bach's six suites for unaccompanied violoncello. Five masterclass students will be invited to Neuhardenberg to each rehearse one of the suites together with Jan Vogler. After the workshop period, all six suites will be performed in one evening, one of these by Jan Vogler himself. The time frame for this exceptional concert event is generous. After the first three suites, there will be a longer intermission during which the audience can get something to eat from the Spritzenhaus or go for a walk in the park to reflect on what they have just heard.

Those who prefer a more sophisticated culinary ambience can treat themselves to a festive menu that will be served in stages before the concert, during the intermission and afterwards.

The Masterclass Student Masters programme unites established stars of the classical music scene with young talents at the beginning of their careers who receive important input in the course of their collaboration with the 'masters'.
