After a welcome return to something approaching a pre-Covid normal season of training camps and concerts, the Australian Youth Orchestra has finished the year with a grand public concert at the Melbourne Town Hall.

Led by London-based Australian conductor – and AYO alumnus – Matthew Coorey, the program included another alumnus, Pei-Sian Ng, currently Principal Cellist of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, as a concerto soloist. It was a reminder, if one were needed, that the AYO has helped many outstanding young Australian musicians establish successful orchestral careers both here and overseas.
