World’s First ‘Global Online Music Audition’ – Excelsia College School of Creative and Performing Arts presents the world’s first online music audition for young and aspiring students wanting to have a career in music, song writing or singing. The live audition will have a great line up of teachers from Excelsia College and industry experts to encourage and build confidence in students participating in the audition. We encourage students to register in advance and ready to perform to their highest expectation. Excelsia College’s objective is to inspire students from Sri Lanka and globally to demonstrate their attitude as a person with artistic talents and boost their confidence as a top-performer.
“I am proud of Excelsia’s high quality teachers, who are internationally renowned musicians, composers and researchers. Excelsia has remained committed to one-to-one instrumental and vocal teaching. It is also one of the few institutions still offering an opportunity to study a second instrument. Our collaborations give our students opportunities to perform and network with musicians outside the institution. The range of small ensembles we offer mean that students can experience making music in many different genres, ranging from classical, contemporary, jazz, funk, rock, heavy metal to chamber music. We look forward to having many young students from Sri Lanka to be part of the online music audition” Dr LotteLatukefu, Head of Creative and Performing Arts, Excelsia College, Sydney.
“I am excited to announce and introduce this initiative to meet and experience talents from Sri Lanka and I wish many students will express interest to participate. Excelsia College in addition to having great teaching and industry fraternity, offer music programme with state of the art teaching and practicing facilities ranging from small studios, purpose build classrooms to technical labs and theatre spaces. I believe an opportunity of this stature will keep us close to the world” – Bobby Abraham, Chief of Admissions, Global Engagement and Partnerships, Excelsia College, Sydney.
“This is a much awaited announcement from Excelsia College, and it is globally known music unites people of different backgrounds, and to many it’s the soundtrack to their lives. It is wonderful to have young students from Sri Lanka to participate and be competitive to be offered a placement at Excelsia College to pursue Bachelor of Music with scholarships on offer for the deserving talents. I look forward to this” – David Samuel, International Marketing Consultant, Excelsia College, Sydney.
