Available spots: bassoon, contrabassoon, trumpet, violins, violas, double basses and percussion.

The wind section plays a key role in shaping the overall colour and character of the orchestra, working closely together to build clarity and ensemble cohesion.

Behind this work is a group of experienced musicians who guide and support the participants throughout the course, contributing to both the musical and human experience of the project.

There are a few available spots for wind players, in particular for bassoon, contrabasoon and trumpet.
