The ACTOR Project Training and Mentoring Committee is organizing the first Workshop on Orchestration Pedagogy. The event will focus on various approaches to teaching orchestration through demonstrations, discussions, and the examination of orchestration syllabi.

The event aims to help new student members get acquainted with ACTOR and will include a brief presentation about the project, funding opportunities available, and ongoing research projects. We believe this is a good chance for you to connect, collaborate, and take full advantage of this great community of artists, humanists, and scientists. We also have some great updates about the Student Exchange Funding.
