MSO Snare Drum Award
In Pursuit of Snare Drum Excellence
1ST AND 2ND YEAR TERTIARY STUDENTS
Robert Cossom, long standing MSO musician, established the MSO Snare Drum Award six years ago to support the talents of up-and-coming percussionists. Open to first and second year tertiary students, this award presents an exclusive opportunity for budding musicians to learn from the best.
This year’s Award will be held on Tuesday 10 August 2010. Participants will be asked to commit time during the day to audition before progressing to the second stage. Four finalists will perform at a public evening concert in the Iwaki Auditorium, ABC Southbank Centre. A panel of experts will decide the winner.
The winning recipient of the 2010 MSO Snare Drum Award will receive with a Mastro concert snare drum and case, a bitsandpieces trap table, and a one-year mentorship with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
