What is it
Created in 2012, the Youth Academy of the Petrobras Symphony Orchestra offers free training to young people from music schools and community orchestras, in order to prepare them for entry into higher music courses and their subsequent professional insertion. During the two years of the program, students participate in classes in musical theory and perception and in orchestral practice, in addition to having the opportunity to study with the musicians of the Petrobras Symphony Orchestra.
In ten years of history, the Youth Academy has seen its students obtain an average of 94% passing the tests of specific ability (THE), in several universities. For guitarist Tomaz Soares, conductor and teacher of orchestral practice at Ajopes, the academy is a great opportunity for young people who want to deepen their music and instrument studies, as well as their skills towards professionalization.
“At the academy, students find an environment focused on their integral development as musicians. After two years, they finish the program playing and solfeging better, ready to succeed in the university and in the world of music, whether orchestral or not. The ultimate goal of this improvement is to communicate with the public through this unique and universal language that is music”, said Tomaz Soares, musician of the orchestra.
Former Ajopes student, Daniel Martins, 19, studied at the academy between 2020 and 2021. “I studied not only with renowned professionals in the field of music, but I also learned from the entire team behind the orchestra. It was definitely my greatest musical experience. I always knew, since I was little, that I would work with music, and the academy helped me to be sure of that”. The clarinetist and now a student at the School of Music of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Daniel Martins, recommended that anyone who studies music should not miss this opportunity.
