Ensemble Workshops with Professor Robert McWilliams

With the support of Yamaha Music, we’re excited to host eminent pedagogue Professor Robert McWilliams for ensemble workshops on Monday 29 and Tuesday 30 July.

 

Prof McWilliams will be working with most of our bands and orchestras to upskill students and staff in effective rehearsal technique and improvement. For most students, these workshops will take the place of normal lessons during Week 3. Please follow Compass carefully.
