Music Foundry

Music Foundry

Music Foundry is a collaboration between Marryatville High School and Adelaide Baroque, for the presentation of specialist courses in music and criticism, international music workshops and performances.

The Music Foundry partnership evolved from successful past projects such as Adelaide Fringe 2004 YEP project, Reviewing the Fringe and the Inaugural Marryatville Music Academy (July 2002).

Since 1977, Adelaide Baroque through its performances, Summer Schools and touring has played an important role in the training of early music specialists and in aiding South Australians to discover the delights of historically-informed baroque music.

Marryatville High School through its highly regarded Special Interest Music Centre has helped nurture musicians who now have careers as musicians around the world. Frequently the School's prize-winning choirs, bands and orchestras tour nationally and internationally to great acclaim.

Music Foundry has been established with the intention that in the next five years, an International Music Academy will be established at Marryatville High School. They also intend to provide vocational training and create an international network of musical mentors and tutors.
