(Old Submission Thread, 2020 - Mar 2021) CALL FOR RECORDINGS for upcoming Virtual Masterclass with Mircea Gogoncea

This thread has become too long, and is now therefore closed for submissions. Feel free to use the new thread to submit videos for future virtual masterclasses with me! Same rules as always apply.

Announcement:

Following the success of the first Community Virtual Masterclass on December 13th (<- click to watch), we are once again looking for submissions for the next Virtual Masterclass with me.

 

A new date and time will be announced once we have 2-3 suitable submissions. So please, go ahead and submit your videos to us by replying to this very thread!


Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis (no deadline), so if yours doesn't make it into this upcoming masterclass, we hope to be able to use it in a future edition.

How Virtual Masterclasses work:

  1. You send in a video of yourself performing a piece, movement of a piece, or even a passage from a piece.
  2. Once we have 2-3 submissions, I will run a live stream specifically for you, giving you tailor-made advice for your own playing!

It's like if we were doing an online lesson - except others get to see it and hopefully also benefit from the advice I'm giving you. Here is an example!

It's basically an exact replica of an in-person masterclass: you play for a teacher (in this case through a recording), and they work with you while others watch.

Why?

  • Have you been watching the live streams and wishing you could ask me a question relating to your playing specifically? Now is your chance!
  • Share your music with others and grow by watching them, too.
  • It's basically a free online lesson for you!

What must you know?

  • It can be something you recorded specifically for this, or a preexisting recording you already have.
  • All levels are welcome! My advice will be tailored to your specific level, and in the past, we've worked with everything from beginners to full-on concert players.
  • You must be fine with other people watching the video and your performance, as it will be embedded into the live stream itself. I will start and stop it as if we were doing an actual, in-person masterclass.
  • I usually spend about 20-35 minutes per submission.
  • While I will try to feature everyone, if we get a lot of submissions, your video might not be immediately featured. In that case however, we'll run more of these very soon!

Where and what to submit?

  • Submit right here, by replying to this thread!
  • You can either attach a video directly from your computer, or paste a link to a YouTube video
  • (If you opt to use a YouTube video, it can be unlisted - no need to make it public!)
  • Please also attach a link to the sheet music.

  • Hi Mircea, could I please be included in the next virtual masterclass if there is space? Here is my submission. I would like to focus on the first piece (Bach 998). I will upload my score later. Thanks!

      Jaime Well done, and thanks for submitting this. I am sure that we all will get much insight into Bach's beautiful piece and how to play it.

      Jaime thank yo so much for your submission. It will be very interesting to get some advices about the Prelude. I played this also in the past and now it‘s the best time to take the scores and bring this piece back to live again. Best Regards

    • Olli thanks Olli. Yes, me too! I actually recorded this a while ago but have been inspired to revisit the piece after all the recent TB livestreams on Bach. Hopefully I can make some improvements in my performance with Mircea’s guidance!
