The Orchestra Project returns to the magnificent Verbrugghen Hall at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music to perform Johannes Brahms 2nd Piano Concerto, with acclaimed pianist Daniel de Borah, alongside Richard Strauss' epic tone poem Ein Heldenleben - A Hero's Life.

Once again, members of the Sydney Symphony, Melbourne Symphony, Queensland Symphony, Adelaide Symphony, Australian Chamber Orchestra, Orchestra Victoria and Opera Australia Orchestra, will rehearse and perform alongside pre-eminent students from the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM), various conservatoriums and the wider Australian music fraternity.

This concert will mark the 20th anniversary of The Orchestra Project and its 32nd event. Established by conductor Fabian Russell in Melbourne in April 2002, it created an advanced national, and mentor-driven, orchestral training program that replicated a professional rehearsal structure at a time when professional and student side-by-side activities were still rare in this country. The Orchestra Project is proud to have been one of the pioneers of this approach to orchestral training in Australia. Thousands of musicians throughout the country have benefitted from its work over the last twenty years.
