London Sinfonietta

Geoffrey Paterson Tutor

Harrison Birtwistle - Carmen Arcadiae Mechanicae Perpetuum

As part of our annual London Sinfonietta Academy course we invite early-career conductors to take part in our conductor workshops and work with the London Sinfonietta ensemble. Through supported rehearsals, emerging conductors have the opportunity to work on a piece of contemporary repertoire with London Sinfonietta musicians and gain feedback from conductor Anna-Maria Helsing.

London Sinfonietta aims to be accessible and welcoming to all. We are committed to increasing the diversity of those we work with and provide training and performance opportunities to support artists from backgrounds that are currently under-represented on our stage and in the classical music industry including Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME), disabled, trans, non-binary and female candidates. As a result, we are committed to offering at least 50% of the places on the course to people from these under-represented backgrounds.
