The Masterclass Media Foundation is a non profit organisation and UK registered charity (No 1113002) which films and records some of the world’s great musicians teaching and giving masterclasses. The Foundation has two aims: first to create an archive of such masterclasses for the benefit of future generations of students and scholars and secondly to make them available on DVDs and eventually through the internet, to music schools and students throughout the world. It works closely with the most prestigious music schools and has filmed musicians of the calibre of Maxim Vengerov, András Schiff, Bernard Haitink, Stephen Kovacevich, Kurt Masur, Stephen Hough, Evelyn Glennie, Yuri Bashmet, Håkan Hardenberger and Thomas Quasthoff.
