The Benedetti Foundation have announced a new series of virtual sessions which will run from 28 March to 18 April. The sessions will help participants address the physical and psychological foundations of their playing.

Open to players of any instrument, the sessions are intended to complement participants' individual lessons or group tuition. 

Nicola Benedetti said: ‘These sessions are intended to complement your individual lessons or group tuition and allow you to take time to focus together on ‘why we do the things we do’ in our playing.

'Through a series of daily challenges, all carefully designed to be quickly and easily grasped, we will work with participants of all ages and stages to support improvement and understanding of technique by breaking concepts down into a number of smaller categories. If you have not or do not address your entire physical and mental state, it is very very difficult to improve despite your dedication and efforts.

'We really hope that together in these sessions we can inspire collective development in our physical and mental approach to playing.’
