Joyce Fisher Professional Development Award

Thanks to generous sponsorship by the Joyce Fisher Charitable Trust, the KBB Music Festival is able to grant four awards each year valued at up to $500. These can be used in any way to target specific areas of growth in your musical leadership.

Suggestions include:

  • Guest conductor for rehearsals or workshops

  • Assistance with conducting-technique / score preparation

  • Rehearsal observation (observing the conductor and giving feedback on what works and doesn’t work)

  • Tuning workshops

  • Specific instrumental workshop – e.g. strings, flutes, trombones, percussion…

  • Support with selecting suitable repertoire for an ensemble

  • Establishing a ‘culture’ within a musical ensemble

  • Other areas in which mentoring is requested

Joyce Fisher Professional Development Awards will be announced each year as part of the Gala Concert celebrations.
