Postcards
Stephen Lloyd (OS 1974, above) credits his then Headmaster, Alastair Mackerras, and teachers Peter Seymour and Tod Piekos for encouraging his early interest in music. Looking back, he sees his time at the School as a defining moment in terms of his future career. His big break came in 1980 when, as a recipient of the Marten Bequest Scholarship, he left Australia for Europe to pursue his music career studying the flute in Manchester and conducting in Vienna. Stephen is now based in Italy at the geographically and culturally elevated location of Brixen/Bressanone in Südtirol. As the music director of South Tyrol's only professional German speaking theatre since 1994, Stephen divides his time between composing, arranging and conducting.
