Participants
- Andreas Burzik
Programme
Stage fright? It’s part of the experience — and no reason to panic. In this workshop, Andreas Burzik — psychologist and violinist — shows participants in the Cello Masterclasses how to deal with an unsettling “too much” of excitement on stage.
The workshop will be held in English and is intended for participants in the Cello Masterclasses as well as interested visitors.
