The University of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra will soon embark on its first international tour in five years. Heading to Singapore and Malaysia, the tour will share and showcase the musical talents of more than 100 student musicians from the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music and its orchestral training program.
Director of the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music, Professor Richard Kurth, says: ‘This tour provides an inspiring platform for students to hone their skills and showcase their work in two of Asia’s most vibrant cities, and students and staff will also have learning interactions at peer institutions in both cities. We are thrilled to share our energies with the musical public and with University of Melbourne alumni communities in Singapore and Malaysia.’
