Our Masterclass series offers students rare behind-the-scenes insights into the craft of professional musicians.
Emerging professional performers share their expertise as they deliver live performance workshops for Chetham’s students. Many guest artists are in the city performing with the Hallé or BBC Philharmonic, allowing Chetham’s students the chance to learn with them in masterclasses as well as hearing them perform live with a professional symphony orchestra.
These masterclasses are made possible with generous support from Rayna and Peter Jackson and The Haworth Trust
In 2025, our students have enjoyed masterclasses from Sir Stephen Hough, an alumni and arguably one of the greatest musicians of our time, British/Ukrainian violinist Roman Lytwyniw, chamber ensemble Liturina and plenty more.
