<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Sam Phillips Principal of the Mitchell College of Advanced Education (now Charles Sturt University) appointed music education lecturer Laurie Orchard as convenor of the <i>Educational and Cultural Committee </i>reporting directly to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music who were looking to establish a central west regional conservatorium of music like those that had been established in Newcastle in 1952 and Wollongong in 1972. After much consultation with local music teachers, enormous support from local business and the Council their vision was to become a reality. Premises were made available at the west wing of the Bathurst Courthouse through the NSW State Government and Laurie Orchard went on to become the Conservatorium’s inaugural Director from 1978 to 1987. Growth and development continued with successive Director Max Reeder 1987 to 2005 and the Conservatorium continues to flourish under the current Directorship of Fiona Thompson. All three Directors are professional musicians in their own right and this link with performance and musical education has ensured quality teaching throughout the three campuses. Successful past students include Grahame Thompson, Dale Truscott - Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Chris Hillier - Australian Opera, Jacquie Smith- Gondwana Children’s Choir and Susan Scott as well as international successes Peter Constant, Michael Clarke, Helen Sherman and Carla Blackwood.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Mitchell Young Voices performed our national anthem with conductor and teacher Michelle Griffin and teacher Nicholas Newell led a Mitchell Conservatorium student string ensemble as part of the civic reception hosted by the Bathurst Regional Council last Tuesday, for Australia's Governor-General Her Excellency Quentin Bryce.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The Governor-General arrived and was greeted by Mayor Monica Morse who introduced Her Excellency to as many community members as possible. The Governor-General seemed relaxed and at home shaking hands and chatting with the crowd.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Well done to all the Mitchell Conservatorium performers who represented us so well!</span>Mitchell Conservatoriumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05780017992968984764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9029319576387379992.post-24711971166370251592013-04-16T10:06:00.002+10:002013-04-16T10:06:18.483+10:00Mitchell Conservatorium Alumni blitz The Voice auditions<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two former students of the Mitchell Conservatorium have made an early impression on judges and audiences alike in the blind audition round of of the televsion sensation Th<em>e Voice</em>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">“Let’s
grasp the baton” was the community call for the establishment of the State’s
first regional, community-based, pre-tertiary and non-profit Music Centre in
Bathurst and Orange, which became a reality in May 1978. The move to the West
Wing of Bathurst Court House in 1980 was far-sighted and positive. Lithgow and
Forbes Divisions (and for nine and a half-years, Wentworth Falls) subsequently
joined under our umbrella. In 1995, Mitchell Conservatorium became incorporated
and one year later, the Orange Regional Conservatorium became independent. We
celebrated our Silver Anniversary in 2003 and our 30th Anniversary in 2008, to
great acclaim in the community</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Thank
you to our two tremendous tutors Justin Screen and Craig Alloway who led the
final concert for these workshops at St John’s Anglican Church in Forbes. This
community concert presented an eclectic program on instruments such as Bass
Clarinet, Bassoon, Baritone Saxophone, Tuba, Trombone and Euphonium. A hearty
congratulations to all the participants.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #660000; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Lithgow Show 2013 highligts</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two Mitchell Conservatorium students performed at the recent Lithgow Show on Saturday 16 March to very appreciative audiences.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Silas Burbank , electric guitar, played a number of well known pop tunes as well as improvisations of classical standards such as Bach’s Toccata & Fugue. One audience member stated “ He was so good that I thought it was a recording until I looked into the stage area and saw this young boy playing. Absolutely amazing!” Silas used his effects pedal to add extra variations to his music and demonstrate his skills of improvisation.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Callum Woodrow also entertained a large and appreciative audience with his skills on the xylophone. Playing pieces such as <em>Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy,</em> <em>Flight of the Bumble Bee</em> and 1st movement of a Mozart violin concerto, Callum demonstrated his ability to play pieces with vastly different tempos and which used the entire keyboard of his instrument. He mesmerised the audience with the speed of his mallets which at times appeared to be no more than a blur.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

In previous years he has taught violin at Cranbrook School in Sydney, Aschem Girls, Sydney Grammar and Blue Mountains Conservatorium. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">His performing career began with his appointments as Leader of the Sydney University String Quartet, the Winbourne string quartet and subsequently with Symphony orchestras throughout Australia. Since 1978 Gustaw has freelanced, performing with orchestras, quartets, trios, and recorded for commercial studios and ABC radio. He has also backed many artists including Rita Hunter, Shirley Bassey, Frank Sinatra, Peter Ustinov, Marcia Hines, John Denver and Tommy Tycho. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a member of the Tarantella Trio, Blue Mountains Trio and the Paganini Duo he has done several interstate tours and in 1999 a tour of South Asia. He currently performs in a regular concert series at Jenolan Caves as part of the Paganini Duo. Gustaw is also conductor of the Lithgow orchestra, which plays an eclectic mix of music ranging from classical, jazz to originals.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pictured is Gustaw giving a lesson to his student Tara Chan, who has just been awarded the A.MusA. He comments that Tara is an exceptional student, and it is a great achievement for one so young. Gustaw is now preparing Tara for the Licentiate. This final exam requires a complete understanding of Violin technique and repertoire. Gustaw points out that there are many aspects to technique. It requires an understanding of the way the fingers interact with the strings and the way the bow moves along the string, but always keeping in mind that this technique is a means to an end, which of course is the music. Understanding the notes in a phrase to be able to produce the music are all integral aspects of technique. In other words, one has to transcend the notes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only way to achieve this is a complete understanding of the instrument. If you want to learn to play the Violin, either with a view to serious technique and achieving your diploma or simply for enjoyment, contact Mitchell Conservatorium on 6331 6622 and learn from Gustaw Szelski.</span>Mitchell Conservatoriumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05780017992968984764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9029319576387379992.post-13785576547571173942013-03-06T10:19:00.003+11:002013-03-06T10:19:53.097+11:00Early Childhood Music<span style="color: #741b47; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>New Early Childhood Music classes to begin in Parkes</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Music is one of the greatest gifts a parent or caregiver can give a child…”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mitchell Conservatorium's Early Childhood Music classes are a wonderful introduction to the world of music for children as young as one year of age.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The carefully planned program starts with one year-old children and continues until preschool age. Children are welcome to join at any time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In these classes, children find their musical voice; grow in their self-esteem and self-confidence through exploring the colourful world of music. With a selection of songs, children gain an understanding of beat, rhythm, pitch, tone, colour and dynamics. Playing a variety of tuned and un-tuned percussion instruments provide further stimulus to children’s coordination skills and musical awareness in small group settings.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Parents and carers are valuable partners as two and three year old children enjoy singing and memorizing tunes and works of simple song and rhymes, honing fine and gross motor skills as they jump, run, tap sticks and clap hands, listen to sounds in their environments, on tape or CD and learn to share with others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By developing solid foundations of musical activities in a stress-free environment, children learn a lifelong love of music. Our teachers greatly appreciate the wonderful musical foundations these Early Childhood programs develop in children prior to learning an instrument. Musical study and performance is seen to be linked with above average academic performances and early involvement leads to a lifelong love and understanding of music, be it classical, jazz, country, folk, rock, rhythm & blues, heavy metal or rap. Music is one of the greatest gifts a parent or caregiver can give a child.</span><br />

Many years ago, my sister-in-law <a href="http://www.istea.com.au/for-parents/twinkle-tot-music" target="_blank">Kay Griffiths</a> shared the musical message above with me. Can you read it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I use it to explain these three musical symbols to my students. And I always let them know how I learnt it.</div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Don't be sharp</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Don't be flat </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Always be natural</span></blockquote>
I'll let you ponder the philosophical meaning of the saying: I've been doing that for forty years, and still reflect on it, every now and again. But for musicians:<br />

Do you have any other great musical puzzles? We'd love you to share them.<br />
<br />
But the little person in the picture is starting with exploring music through movement and actions and sound: sharps and flats can come later!<br />
<br />
Your child can explore music at Mitchell Conservatorium in our early childhood program and later learn to make sense of those mysterious symbols, too when you phone 6331 6622 and enrol in 2013 classes.<br />

On Saturday, 24th and Sunday, 25th November, the Western Wind Quintet will delight you with music by Beethoven, Gershwin, Reicha, Farkas and Milhaud.<br />
<br />
Mitchell Conservatorium folk remember with great affection The Quintessentials, a group of five talented young ladies who played the same instruments as those above: clarinet, oboe, bassoon, horn and flute. The girls have left Bathurst and moved on to make music elsewhere, but the magical sounds they made can be heard again, but this time played by <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Justin Screen, from our Lachlan branch<br />
Orange's Laith Ismail <br />
Blue Mountains-based Nerida Hext <br />
and Bathurst's Mathias Rogala-Koczorowski and Prem Love<br />
</blockquote>
They can be heard in Bathurst at Mitchell Conservatorium, on Saturday, 24th November at 7.30 PM, and in Lithgow on Sunday, 25th November at 2 PM at Eskbank House.
<br />
<br />
The concert is free for children, $15 for concession card holders and $20 for adults.<br />
