Portuguese Academic Orchestra
OAP is an amateur and academic orchestra of superior level. The orchestra is conducted by Diogo Ribeiro and Frederico Costa. It intends to increase opportunities for those who play an instrument, allowing musicians to enjoy and learn through the experience of playing with another in an academic environment.
Music Classes
Our music classes focus on the continuous learning of a chosen instrument. Our main goal is to teach in a complete manner and to follow a gradual approach, suited to each musician’s needs and level of expertise.
OAP and CAP can also help you to develop your artistic and technical capacities in an orchestra. We want to give you the opportunity to put into practice what you are learning each day.
