Since 1999, an international masterclass for piano, with Prof. Hans-Jürg Strub, takes place every year at Weidenkam Castle (Bavaria, Germany) near Lake Starnberg. In previous years, participating musicians came from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, Bulgaria, Georgia and Japan.

The course is opened with a piano recital in the atmospheric ambiance of the grand hall of Weidenkam Castle. In addition to the tutor Prof. Hans-Jürg Strub, several interpreters from Japan and Georgia have played the opening concert of the summer-course, which is quite well established in Bavaria.

During ten days, approximatively 20 pianists work on their repertoire prepared especially for the course. Participation of chamber music ensembles is possible as well. Selected participants perform the closing concert of the course in front of a large audience.

Participation is possible in several categories:

Course A: Undergraduate and graduate pianists (piano duos and chamber music ensembles with piano as well) at a high professional level

Course B: Piano teachers wishing to refresh their professional approach to piano playing, young students of an advanced level and amateurs

Listeners: Non-active participants. Every music enthusiast is invited to spend a few relaxing days at Weidenkam Castle, surrounded by piano music.

Participants in every category have free access to all lessons.
