   How can young
 musicians be trained
  to be professional
  orchestral players?
Friday 26 and Saturday 27th March 2021
          From 9:30am (GMT+1)

CONFERENCE HELD ON LINE – MANDATORY REGISTRATION
PRO G R A M M E

Sensitive intelligence, shared creativity, sound accuracy and collective discipline are some
of the skills used by musicians when playing in an orchestra. In the last few years, French
and international orchestras – among them the Orchestre de Paris – have developed several
orchestra academies, conceived on the model of sessions or curriculum. The comparison
with existing models worldwide opens new perspectives to adapt the content of those
programmes.

Organised in partnership with the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse
de Paris.

The conference will be held online. Please register here to attend the meeting.
