Conducting and Music Teaching Program

The Conservatorium's new Conducting Program offers musicians the opportunity to extend their orchestral skills in conducting and musical pedagogy. It provides essential skills and knowledge to help students develop as a musician, teacher, and conductor.

Under the leadership of our Artistic Director and Conductor, Patrick Brennan, the program is delivered in a small, focused group, and includes practical, theoretical, and fun sessions and explores the following topics: 

• Conducting technique
• How to run engaging rehearsals and sectionals
• Planning and delivering musical events and performances
• Participating in masterclasses
• Leadership skills
  
  

Ages: Tertiary level and advanced high school students wishing to pursue music at a tertiary level and beyond.

Patrick Brennan and Diane Gardiner are running the program, bringing many years of diverse training to the course offering a multi-point-of-view technique.

The Conducting Program is open to members of the CCCM Orchestral Program   
CCCM Alumni are invited to join by application to Patrick Brennan.
