Elder Conservatorium / Adelaide Symphony Orchestra Training Program

The ECM/ASO Training Program is off and running! In this new initiative in collaboration with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Elder Conservatorium of Music students have the opportunity to take a deep dive into the life of an orchestral musician, participating in side-by-side playing within the orchestra, mock auditions, rehearsal observations, before a final audition for casual employment with the Orchestra. The program has been spearheaded by Head of Performance Dr Elizabeth Layton, with assistance from Head of Woodwind Lloyd Van't Hoff and forms a crucial bridge in helping young musicians traverse the juncture between student and professional life.
