Musicians in Stage 2 Strings are introduced to increasingly complex orchestral concepts so that they may refine skills such as:

• Effectively and confidently sight read
• Progressively master challenging rhythms
• Interpret musical markings with deeper stylistic understanding

Repertoire for Stage 2 include arrangements of music from classical composers such as Schubert, Faure, and Stravinsky, in addition to bespoke works composed by up-and-coming Australian composers.

All musicians in Stage 2 also participate in Orchestral Musicianship each week via SYOnline.
