SUMMER COURSE
2009
The residential summer course
2009
will take place from Monday July 13th until Sunday July 19th, and is for children aged 9 to 15 of grade 3 to 8 standard
and above, who play an orchestral or band instrument. The more
advanced children will play in the Symphony Orchestra and the less advanced in the Junior String Orchestra
or the Wind Band. There is also a Brass Ensemble, a Symphonic Wind Band
and a String Orchestra which meet for several sessions during the week, and
involve all players of the relevant instruments. The Grand Orchestra, which includes all
course participants, also meets several times during the week.
Outside of rehearsal
times, there are daily arts, crafts and sporting activities which are
supervised by specialist staff, and a full programme of evening
entertainments. There is a resident nurse.
The final
concerts will take place
on Sunday afternoon July 19th, finishing at about 6.00 p.m. Each participant
will take part in both concerts, which will consist of two completely
different programmes.
