About

Double Bassist

Julia has been involved with Australian Youth Orchestra programs since 2018. She has attended all successive National Music Camps from 2018-2023, and all Flagship programs from 2022. She will also be participating in all 2025 programs for the AYO Momentum Ensemble. Julia graduated from her BMus Performance with First Class Honours (Double Bass) at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, for her ground-breaking research into the history and development of the ikh khuur, the bass instrument of the Mongolian horsehead fiddle family. In 2022, she led the Sydney Conservatorium double bass section on an International European Orchestral Tour. In 2023, shortly after her graduation, she performed Tan Dun’s Wolf Totem Concerto as soloist with the Sydney Chinese Orchestra. Julia has established herself as one of the top emerging double bassists in Sydney. She has progressed to the final rounds of ANAM, ACO Emerging Artists, OA Patricia Reid Fellows, MSO academy, and the SSO fellowship. This year she has made her debut into Orchestra Victoria and the Opera Australia Orchestra, playing in Joby Talbot’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Oscar. She also frequently performs with Salut! Baroque on historical double bass, and in orchestral soundtracks for film, television and video games.
