 The competition, which aims to improving the qualifications of professional musicians-teachers will be held in Centre for the Promotion of Culture, Podskarbińska 2 St. in Warsaw.

It is the only competition of such a formula, where an essential element is the pedagogical tenure in artistic education. In the previous editions took part 73 teachers in total from Japan, Chile, Russian Federation, Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Estonia, Belarus, Ukraine and Poland.

Formula of IMCMT is based on recital presentation before the Competition Jury.

The competition is a kind of experiment, mobilizing teachers to the great effort, active self-learning and to the technical-artistic development.

 A good teacher is the active one, playing on the instrument who can demonstrate the correct implementation of fragments of a piece of music, and can show ways to solve technical problems or correct arrangement of the hand on the instrument. The majority of teachers for various reasons could not continue their life career of soloist, chamber or concert musician. A stage presentation within the Master Meetings for Educators is an offer of further development for each teacher for the benefit of Student and School. A concert performance mobilizes teachers to the great effort, active self-learning and to the technical-artistic development.. The project is addressed to teachers and music academies of all levels who have documented work experience in artistic education.
