Sydney's Rising Young Talent

The Rising Stars at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music is a dynamic performance-based music education program.

The program provides gifted school-age students with specialist tuition in a supportive environment that helps develop their musical and artistic skills.

At Rising Stars, we strive to identify talent at an early age, to lay a constructive foundation for a lifetime of musical achievement. Supported by the Conservatorium faculty, the program is based on proven values of quality instrumental teaching, structured academic development, regular performance and the benefits of a strong and supportive musical peer group.

The Rising Stars program focuses on three essential elements: individual instrumental lessons, group Music Skills classes, and regular performance opportunities. We believe that these three components enable our students to become well-educated and confident musicians.

The program also offers electives in Chamber Music and Composition, where our students can develop their ensemble and creative skills.
