Noah Lawrence

Hailing from Bendigo, Victoria, Noah has performed side-by-side with most of Australia’s professional orchestras, and also as a chamber musician and soloist at the Bendigo Chamber Music Festival and Port Fairy Spring Festival. He was the principal Cello of the Australian Youth Orchestra in 2024. Noah is at home in diverse musical contexts - he is experienced on the orchestral stage, in chamber music, in the opera pit, the recording studio, or even backing a jazz ensemble or metal band. His goal is always to create connection through performance.

Noah is passionate about music communication and working to give everyone a deeper understanding of the arts. He was the master of ceremonies at the second ever Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) Sydney Supporter Dinner in 2024, held at Bennelong restaurant in the Sydney Opera House, and he played and acted in SSO’s children’s performances of Peter and the Wolf in 2025. He was an interview panelist at SSO’s 2026 season launch, and spoke before a number of Fellows chamber music performances during the 2025 season. Noah is currently serving as co-chair of the AYO Youth Council.

Noah completed three years of study under Howard Penny at ANAM and was a Sydney Symphony Fellow during the 2025 season.
