In
the 2024/2025 season, the Metropole Academy will take place for the second
time. This is an educational program for music students from conservatories in
the Netherlands. The Metropole Orkest offers these students a high-quality
supplement to their studies through intensive coaching and participation in
orchestra projects.
Each year, seven students are selected through auditions (five instrumentalists
and two arrangers/composers) who will receive tailored intensive coaching
throughout the season.
The program is made possible by SENA, the Foundation of musician Bastiaan van
der Werf, het Cultuurfonds and Zabawas.
