Professor Holl starts the masterclass explaining the character of the piece and giving some corrections on phrasing and articulation. Rubato, tempo, colour and dynamics are also topics to be studied in the class.
He insists on German pronunciation - specifically the vowels - and comments aspects such as phrasing and flexibility in the voice line. He explains the construction of the phrase and the previous preparation required to build it.
Finally, Professor Holl focuses on the expression and the sound through the vowels and the consonants.
