Almost 20 South Burnett intermediate and advanced string players and percussionists spent last weekend at Kingaroy’s Uniting Church Hall refining their technique.<\/p>\n

They were taking part in a series of “Bows and Beats” music workshops organised by the South Burnett Community Orchestra.<\/p>\n

The workshops were led by visiting tutors Gwyn Roberts and Jeff Jarrott.<\/p>\n

Gwyn is a principal cellist and was the musical director of the Queensland University Symphony Orchestra, as well as a senior lecturer in the School of Music for 25 years.<\/p>\n

He is currently the conductor of the Young Conservatorium Symphony Orchestra.<\/p>\n

Jeff is a percussion specialist teacher at five schools in Brisbane and the Percussion Project Officer for the Brisbane metropolitan region.<\/p>\n

He is in demand as a workshop presenter, tutor and adjudicator, and also enjoys writing and arranging music.<\/p>\n

The workshops, which ran on Saturday and Sunday, provided high quality music tuition at low cost for local musicians.<\/p>\n

They were made possible through funding from the Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF).<\/p>\n

RADF is a State Government and South Burnett Regional Council partnership that aims to support local arts and culture.<\/p>\n
