masterclasses
Lessons from masters
Masterclasses are intensive instructional sessions led by experts in a field, typically for students already proficient in the subject.
A pianist might attend a masterclass with a renowned performer, receiving critique and guidance in front of an audience.
The format has expanded beyond music to cooking, writing, acting, and business: I watched her masterclass on negotiation.
The term now also describes premium online courses marketed as access to elite expertise.
