ABODA Victoria is pleased to announce its upcoming Percussion from the Podium professional development event, an opportunity to discuss percussion questions from the stance of a conductor. Mr Trent Hutchinson of Trinity College, Kew, will join us to provide basic and foundation information, as well as to address the questions and concerns conductors have regarding percussion performance:
- achieving particular, characteristic sounds on various instruments
- typical and standardised percussion score markings and their meanings
- strategies for integrating percussion students into full ensemble orchestral and wind rehearsals
This event it strongly encouraged as both an opportunity collect and build upon key knowledge and skills in conducting percussion in large ensembles. Full registration details are attached below. Inquiries for this event best directed to Branch President Joanne Heaton.
