As part of our collaboration with the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra (CSO), we welcomed six accomplished musicians to work with the students in the Medbury Orchestra. The boys spent two hours enhancing their ensemble playing skills under the guidance of these expert musicians.
The orchestra was divided into sectionals, with each CSO member focusing on students who play their specific instrument. During these sectionals, the students worked on phrasing, dynamic contrast, articulation, and playing cohesively as a section. This time with the CSO musicians was incredibly valuable and inspiring for the orchestra.
We would like to thank the following CSO players for their time and dedication to our Centre of Excellence in Music: Jonathan Tanner, Arna Morton, Bella Zilber, Margo Askin, Thomas Eves, and Mark La Roche.
