Boston Philharmonic Founder and Conductor Benjamin Zander’s Saturday morning Interpretation Classes are among the most extraordinary – and, thanks to video, most widely seen – of all the conductor’s musical activities. During these classes, which are free and open to the public (no need for a ticket), Mr. Zander guides highly accomplished young musicians who live or study in the Boston area to become more communicative in order to develop more alive interpretations of a huge range of classical masterworks. The audience at these events feels very much a part of the process of transformation that unfolds, week after week.
These classes give everyone involved a window into how music can and
should be performed in order to engage, stimulate and inspire the
audience at the deepest level.
High school and college musicians are invited to apply to be a participant by contacting [email protected].
There are two other Interpretation Classes in 2024: November 23 and December 14.
Mr. Zander’s famed communication skills and lifetime immersion in all aspects of musical performance help him to be a transformative musical coach who guides and inspires players of all instruments to a deeper understanding of what the music is actually asking of the performer and how to communicate that with the greatest intensity and authenticity to the audience.
