Sameeta Gahir, Principal Piccolo, Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and Lead
Musician for the Emerging Musicians Fellowship, said:

“Last year we received a fantastic response when we announced the launch of the Emerging
Musicians Fellowship. The standard was very high and I’m excited to welcome applications
for the second Fellowship cohort.

“The Fellowship’s criteria has been designed to attract the widest talent pool possible. There
is no upper age limit and we would particularly encourage applications from musicians
whose backgrounds are underrepresented in professional UK orchestras.”

Domingo Hindoyan, Chief Conductor of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, said:

“It is vital that we support, encourage and inspire the next generation of orchestral musicians
and create opportunities for them to grow professionally. The Fellowship is a unique
experience where Fellows will gain an invaluable insight into orchestral life both on and off
the platform.

“I am looking forward to welcoming the next Fellowship cohort to Liverpool Philharmonic
Hall next season.”
