Bursary application form
The Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra is committed to ensuring that talented young musicians who wish to further their engagement with historically informed performance are able to do so, regardless of their geographic location or financial circumstances. With very generous support from private donors we are able to provide bursaries for eligible applicants to attend the Young Mannheim Symphonists State Intensives and/or the National Academy.
There are two types of bursary:
Travel & Accommodation Bursary; and
Participation Fee Bursary.
It is possible to apply for both bursaries. The bursaries are assessed by a panel from the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra Management Team on a needs basis. The amount of each bursary is dependent on the circumstances of the applicant. All information provided on this Bursary Application Form is confidential.
Closing date for bursary applications: midnight on Sunday 13 November 2022. Applicants will be notified if their bursary application was successful on Friday 25 November 2022.
