If there's interest, we can also arrange elementary and advanced group classes, so if you're a returning student or an experienced player seeking group tuition, please fill out the Student Information form.

Our schools program
Group and individual instrumental tuition is offered onsite at a number of schools in Dubbo and the surrounding region.

Virtual tuition
Alongside in-person lessons, online tuition through Zoom or video conferencing offers music education opportunities for students in remote locations. This method also allows access to instructors for instruments, levels, or styles that may not be available in Dubbo, enabling connections with other regional conservatoriums.
Events, Masterclasses & Workshops
Instrumental and vocal students have the opportunity to perform at concerts hosted by Macquarie Conservatorium. They can also enrol in workshops, masterclasses, and special events that take place throughout the year. In collaboration with their teacher, students can prepare for AMEB and other examinations. Many students participate in school or community bands and ensembles, as well as sing in choirs.
Additionally, we offer Conservatorium ensembles and various group activities that may be of interest. Discover more about our ensembles here.
