Australian Chamber Orchestra, Emerging Artists Program
For two years, in 2005 and 2006, the Nelson Meers Foundation supported the ACO Emerging Artists Program, which identifies a number of promising graduate level music student from across Australia and gives these students the opportunity to develop a special mentoring relationship with an ACO player.
The students receive individual instruction from their mentors; attend closed ACO rehearsals and performances; undergo coaching in audition preparation and technique; and participate in intensive periods of chamber music and chamber orchestra rehearsals with their mentors. The focus on their program is to prepare emerging musicians for all aspects of life in a professional orchestra.
