Congratulations to Ethan Li (C9-2) and Gabriele Natale (C7-1) who were involved in the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s Big Rehearsals project on Monday and Tuesday this week.

Big Rehearsals is an inspiring learning opportunity for students to sit side-by-side with ASO musicians and bring to life music designed to challenge and develop their musicality and orchestral playing skills.

Ethan had the opportunity to work with ASO Principal Bassoonist Mark Gaydon and Principal Contra-bassoonist Jackie Newcombe while Gabriele had the opportunity to work with Principal Clarinettist Dean Newcombe.

This has been a great experience for both boys and which they will continue to develop their playing from.
