Amelia is in her third year at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, studying clarinet performance with Francesco Celata. She has performed in the Conservatorium’s Wind Symphonies, New Music ensemble and Symphony Orchestras as principal clarinet. Amelia feels privileged to have been part of Sydney Youth Orchestras since 2018, when she started in the Sinfonia Orchestra with conductor Brian Buggy. In the following years she played in SWO and was principal clarinet in the SYO Philharmonic for the last two years, where she gained invaluable musical opportunities playing orchestral repertoire.

SYO has provided Amelia with many enriching experiences, notably playing principal clarinet in their 2023 Big West Tour orchestra. Sharing music and collaborating with communities in regional NSW on this tour was an eye opening opportunity which Amelia is so grateful to have been involved in.

She is very excited to be part of The. SYO this year and relishes the chance to play wonderful repertoire under such inspiring conductors.
