musiXange: Free Musical Services
As a European organization that wants to teach the world classical music, we have to begin with content that is accessible by anyone, for free. This helps our members understand what iClassical Academy is and what we do. After all, our ultimate mission is to provide conservatory-level training to classical musicians around the world… …and it starts with musiXange, a collection of various useful musical services.
mus’Info When you visit Google or any other search engine to search something that is music-related, it can be pretty frustrating to sort through all of the search results – especially if you’re a classical musician. Well, we’ve done the difficult work for you and compiled a list of useful classical music resources that you can use to find what you’re looking for. To see the list, click here.
musiMasters The main mission of iClassical Academy is to offer conservatory-level video masterclasses, taught by master teachers of the violin, cello, piano, and trumpet (so far!). Our best content is accessible to our subscribers, but we also want to give musicians some videos that might help them with certain pieces of music. Enter musiMasters, which is a collection of more than 150 video masterclasses compiled for free viewing. If you’d like to check out these videos, click here.
musiMentor We invite classical musicians and teachers to start teaching at iClassical Academy and transform your knowledge into online courses. We guide and coach you to make the best online content with your expertise and reach worldwide thousands amateur and professional musicians. More here.
musiStars Part of being a successful musician is promoting your talents to the world. However, in the classical music world this can be a bit difficult, because there aren’t that many talent scouts out there looking for the world’s greatest violinist, for example. We offer to any musician, of any age and level, the possibility to have a page published by musiXange with an exposer of all the platforms created by iClassical Foundation. The page will contain:
- Your photo
- Bio
- Video
- Your website address
This is a free service for all our musiXange members! Don't miss the opportunity and submit your material through the sign up here
musiCareers Making it in the world of classical music is more than just promoting your talents – you have to know how to manage your time, network with your colleagues, and continually boost your personal musical brand while maintaining an active performance schedule.

musiVlogos You may have noticed that a lot of our content has an Italian twist – but hey, what has more recognizable European flavor than Italy? “Vlogos” is Italian for “vlog” – as you may have guessed, this service is a collection of video blogs, containing informational and educational content for our musiXange members. These vlogs have been put together by both our Master Teachers and our company partners to provide valuable tools for your benefit. Click here to learn more.
musiBlogos Ah, yes – the blog. Believe it or not, blogs are still the #1 consumed written content in the world, having surprised books altogether. They’re quick, straight to the point, and many times very informative. We have put together a growing collection of useful blogs, and we are accepting submissions from experienced classical musicians! If you can write, feel free to contact us here. Otherwise, check out our current blogs by clicking here.
musiStudio If you’ve ever been on YouTube ;-), then you know that there are tens of thousands of classical music videos. An increasing number of these videos are “how to” tutorials, home recordings from private teachers on a piece of music, and so on. We’ve selected our own “how to” videos from YouTube itself that we feel best describes how you can successfully set up your own home studio. If you want to learn how to set up your own home recording studio, click here.
