Ensemble Workshops with Professor Robert McWilliams
On Monday 29 and Tuesday 30 July, with the support of Yamaha Music, EDSC was privileged to host eminent pedagogue Professor Robert McWilliams for ensemble workshops. ‘Dr Rob’ undertook sessions with our four wind bands, as well as the String Group and Chamber Strings ensembles. He was able to provide expert advice for improvement not just to students but also gave comprehensive feedback to the staff of each ensemble.
