The orchestra performed at a very high standard and showed outstanding musicianship as evident in the high profile concerts both here in Adelaide, and on stage at the Opera House and Sydney Town Hall. The BSSO has worked with international and Australian conductors this year, and its young players have quickly shown their attention to detail and willingness to adapt to the various situations. It has been a privilege to work with young players again this year and the results speak for themselves. Andrew Dean Conductor 74
