Building on Repertoire Perspectives 1, and focusing on different works, this subject deepens students' knowledge of orchestral repertoire in its constantly changing contexts, from established historical works to new music by diverse Australian and international composers.
It engages critical concepts and analytical skills for exploring performance decisions and interpretive positions.
Students will examine selected orchestral works in detail from multiple perspectives, including those of individual players, conductors, composers/arrangers, theorists and listeners.

Generic skills
