Masterclasses at the JMC:
Masterclasses have been a cornerstone of musician’s development for centuries. There is no substitute for a one to one meeting of minds between young, developing musicians, and established masters, and the JMC has been a proud and committed exponent of such meetings throughout its history. Today the Centre continues to be a magnet for the world's great artists, who come to share their experience and infectious passion for music with the next generation. In recent years, such guests have included Murray Perahia, Miriam Fried, Gary Hoffman, Emanuel Ax, András Schiff, Tabea Zimmermann, Andreas Scholl, David Grimal,
Masterclasses by such artists offer a level of musical instruction and inspiration to be envied anywhere in the world, and form an essential cornerstone of our young musicians’ development. They can also open doors for our participants, who may be invited to prestigious schools and international music festivals as a result of the connections they make with leading artists through such meetings at the JMC. Over decades of experience, we have developed the concept of masterclasses from one-day events into residential weekends and courses, where participants work daily with international masters, living and studying together.
The Jerusalem Music Centre (JMC):
The JMC was founded in 1973 by legendary violinist Isaac Stern and Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek, with the assistance of Yad Hanadiv (a Rothschild foundation) and the Jerusalem Foundation. The JMC’s purpose was to provide a musical centre that would find and nurture the finest musical talents from all over Israel, and today, as a result of more than 40 years of work, many such talents can be heard performing on prominent concert stages across the world.
Today, headed by renowned pianist Murray Perahia, the JMC continues to imbue each successive generation of young Israeli musicians with the very same love, passion, and respect for their art shared by their predecessors, and indeed by great musicians throughout the centuries.
Our Purpose:
To find, nurture and promote outstanding young musicians from throughout Israel, providing them with uniquely tailored programmes that hone their skills both as soloists, and as ensemble and orchestral players.
To support the musical and pedagogical development of instrumental teachers across the country, bringing them into contact with the world’s leading musicians and musical pedagogues.
To provide a musical centre of global stature at the heart of Israel’s capital, enriching the city and its residents through its world-class concert series.
Our Vision:
Music has the ability to touch so uniquely and directly upon the very essence of human experience. To gain true, authentic mastery of its performance is a lifelong journey that, over and above innate ability, requires commitment, dedication, and humility.
The JMC seeks out those extraordinary young Israelis who wish to, and are capable of embarking upon this journey with us. Around such individuals, we create a musical community of peers and great masters that nurtures, supports and challenges them throughout their formative years and beyond; a community that is there again and again to encourage and remind these budding artists that there is always more to be understood, experienced, and communicated through the language of music.
Through this process of musical contact, these youngsters develop from promising talents into true musicians, who make artistic and interpretative choices knowingly and authentically, as part of an ongoing search for meaning and honest communication in music.
