Professional Section Leaders

The Rehearsal Orchestra has always engaged an experienced professional to lead the orchestra, and thanks to a grant from the Musicians' Union, began engaging professionals to lead each of the string sections during the annual residential course at the Edinburgh Festival. We now engage professional section leaders for every course.
