We will include mass ensemble playing, smaller ensemble playing, a workshop to further develop an area of playing or music interpretation and as we will have three tutors we will end the day with a triple-choir performance. All in one day!

There are no formal auditions for the course but if you are new to NYRO, we may ask you to attend a short, online "Getting to Know You" session before the course.

At our Summer Course, players are allocated to various ensembles according to playing standard and there will also be opportunities to play as a whole course group.

There is plenty of opportunity to relax, either in free time, or in sporting or evening activities as a group.

A deposit of £75 will be required in order to secure a place. This can only be refunded if we cancel the course and will be deducted from the full course fee of £625. There is a facility to pay the balance in three instalments providing your application is received by 1st May 2024.
