Difference Between Course and Masterclass

A course usually follows a more structured learning path over several sessions or days. It may combine score study, rehearsal technique, podium practice and individual feedback, allowing participants to develop several areas step by step.
A masterclass is often more concentrated around direct work with an experienced conductor or professor. The focus is usually on interpretation, technique and detailed feedback on a participant's conducting.
In practice, the two formats often overlap. Both may include orchestra rehearsals, podium time and repertoire preparation; the main difference is usually the structure and teaching approach rather than the level of the participants.
