ABOUT THE COURSE
The Colin Metters International Conducting Retreat is a week-long residential experience presented by the International Conducting Academy at The King’s School, Canterbury. Designed to offer a relaxed but immersive environment, the program gives conductors the time and space for thoughtful exploration, score study, and musical growth away from traditional course pressures.
Led by highly respected pedagogues Colin Metters and Jonathan Mann, the course features detailed work with pianists Hamish Brown and Iain Clarke on technique and interpretation. In the second half of the week, participants will work with a professional string sextet formed by experienced players from major orchestras to further expand their artistic development.
