OCMF Studio: Meta4 and Imogen Cooper Masterclasses

Step behind the curtain of the 2026 Oxford Chamber Music Festival for an intimate encounter with the world's finest musical minds. 

Watch as the next generation of musicians learns from one of the festival's headline ensembles in an intimate setting. The two one-hour masterclasses offer a rare, front-row seat to the creative process, led by renowned Meta4 string quartet and the remarkable pianist Dame Imogen Cooper.

The sessions transcend standard technical drilling; instead, they open a vibrant "musical conversation" focused on deep interpretive styling, artistic dialogue, and the intense collaborative spirit that defines world-class chamber music. 

Presented alongside the festival, the OCMF Studio Masterclasses reflect Oxford Chamber Music Festival's commitment to nurturing outstanding early-career chamber musicians while giving audiences a unique insight into the rehearsal room.

To experience Dame Imogen Cooper in performance, book tickets for her festival concert with Roderick Williams, bringing together two of the UK's most distinguished classical musicians.
