This year we had a total of 9 active participants; 2 RPWS Concertmasters (CM) and 7 external participants. The small number of active participants provided each participant with a good share of podium time and to be honest, I wished each could have been given more. There were so many sharing opportunities and most definitely a lot of learning opportunities for all of us.
Allow me to share with you a couple of videos from the workshop. The videos are of the 2 CMs of the RPWS. Thomas joined RPWS is April 2018 and was appointed as ACM in July 2018. Haziq was appointed ACM in July 2017, a year earlier and now he is the CM and President of RPWS. Both are full-time students in RP. WYCW provides them the opportunity to be part of a conducting workshop and also to watch and learn from the external participants.

At the end of the workshop, we took a group photo, of course!

Next year is the 10th Anniversary of the WYCW! If you are keen to be part of it, please register your interest by sending an email to me at mbmayusri@hotmail.com
