REGISTER NOW

Submissions are due, Sunday, December 29, 2024. 

• Symposium Conducting Participant - $165  
• Symposium Auditor (no conducting) - $80 

Conducting Participant Option ($165) 

As a Conducting Participant you will conduct and collaborate with the Laurier Wind Orchestra receiving real-time feedback and guidance from clinicians. You will observe and participate in presentations and live-conducting sessions. All Conducting Participants are expected to purchase scores. In this role, your focus will be developing gestural vocabulary, shared communication between the conductor and ensemble, and honing ensemble leadership. You will enjoy at least 20 minutes of individualized podium time, and a post-private lesson with a clinician. A conducting participant will be an enriching opportunity for current music educators, undergraduate and graduate music students. 

• Conducting Participants are selected through a screening process. Once registration opens, interested individuals will complete the application and upload a CV/Resume and a shareable link to a 10-minute performance of a piece or movement.  
• CV/Resume- save as a PDF, save file name: last name-first name-CV (Grant-Skylar-CV)
• Possible video link formats (YouTube- unlisted, Drop Box, Google Drive, etc.) 
• Important: Update sharing permissions so that anyone with the link can review. 
• Selected Conducting Participants will be notified of their status by Sunday, January 5, 2025! 
• If not selected, the applicant will be provided the option to audit.

Symposium Auditor Option ($80) 

As a Symposium auditor you will gain insight as an educator, a musician, and a conductor. In this role, you will not have an opportunity to conduct the CSI Laurier ensembles, but you will observe presentations and conducting sessions, and engage in discussions. You will gain information to refine and develop your conducting and rehearsing skills; note taking, active participation, and self-reflection is highly encouraged. Purchasing scores of the selected repertoire is a great way to engage in the music-making and learning process. This is a wonderful opportunity for first-time conducting symposium attendees and individuals seeking to develop their skills (i.e., music educators, undergraduate music students, students looking into graduate conducting programs). 

• Auditor slots are open to all. (no video screening) 
  
• Once registration opens, interested individuals will complete the application and upload a CV/Resume.
