The CBSO’s Conducting Workshop provides an opportunity to get up close and personal with their fantastic musicians and draw parallels between the intricate workings of an orchestra and the dynamics of effective leadership in business.
After the workshop, participants will be given the opportunity to network with other GBYPY award winners, sponsors and CBSO musicians over a light lunch/dinner.
The workshop will take place on two dates, with both days offering exactly the same workshop and activities- Thursday, 6 February 2025 and Thursday, 27 March 2025.
The CBSO is an internationally celebrated symphony orchestra, at home in Birmingham. A family of 90 incredible musicians, led by music director Kazuki Yamada, are proud to make exciting musical experiences that matter.
Resident at Symphony Hall, the orchestra’s musicians perform over 150 concerts each year in Birmingham, the UK and around the world, with music that ranges from classics to contemporary, soundtracks to symphonies, and everything in between.
For more than 100 years, the CBSO has been involved in every aspect of music-making in the Midlands. And through its wide-reaching community and education projects, choruses, and youth ensembles, this continues to grow – helping to build a life-long love of music for audiences, communities and musicians across Birmingham, the West Midlands and beyond.
Emma Stenning, CEO, said: “We are so excited to be an Awards Partner for Birmingham’s Young Professional of the Year Awards. Engaging with our communities and nurturing talent is at the very core of what we do at the CBSO and we can’t wait to welcome award winners and sponsors for a unique professional development workshop up close and personal with our fantastic musicians.”
The Greater Birmingham Young Professional of the Year Awards 2024 will take place on Friday, 18 October at the ICC Birmingham.
