This course is designed for strings, brass, wind and percussion players aged 5-18, playing at Grades 1-5. Directed by GAM Principal Glyn Oxley, and supported by some of the GAM tutors, it's a great opportunity to learn and perform with other young players.

Each day will be divided into different sessions, including full orchestra playing, sectional playing and chamber music as well as lunch-time craft and activity sessions.

The Junior Orchestra Course will take place at GAM's base; Barbican House in Gloucester over the three days and will culminate in a concert for family and friends on the final day at 4pm.
