Mozart Masterclass Roberta Alexander - Stephanie Desjardins, soprano & Wagner Moreira, tenor

The International Vocal Competition’s “Mozart masterclass and More” course week reached its conclusion on 3rd December 2020. Under the motto ‘The world keeps on singing’, eight talented young singers worked intensively with the masters Vesselina Kasarova, Roberta Alexander and Thomas Oliemans on Mozart repertoire. In addition to the master classes, the participants also had online discussions with leading international professionals and the Presentation Concert on the programme. “Mozart masterclass and more“ was set up to provide a stage for young singing talent after the 54th edition of the International Vocal Competition had to be moved to 2022 due to COVID-19. General Director of the IVC Ivan van Kalmthout is delighted that the masterclasses have continued. “Our mission is to give young singing talent the opportunity to develop. The sharing of knowledge by the masters is essential for these vocalists. Just like performances: gaining experience is important for their young careers.”
