Over 80 students participated in our week-long Orchestral Summer School, immersing themselves in sectionals, workshops, and full tutti rehearsals.
The week culminated in a Finale Concert at the Bruce Mason Centre, conducted by Ingrid Martin. The concert featured two world premieres: Polka Dots by Lucy Mulgan and Meditations on the Waitematā Harbour by our 2025 Young Composer-in-Residence, Grace Wellik.
