The Collegium is a full-size string orchestra where developing musicians take the next major step in their orchestral journey.

Through a diverse range of string repertoire, members sharpen their technique, deepen their musical understanding and experience the reward of creating something powerful together as a section and as an ensemble.

Led by string specialist Grace Ah-quee, the Collegium offers a focused and encouraging environment where players grow in both skill and confidence. This is where young string musicians discover what they’re truly capable of, building the foundation to progress to the Camerata and beyond.
