For 120 years, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra has helped shape the sound of our city - a living legacy born here, heard across the State and shared across generations.

As Melbourne has grown and changed, so have we, reflecting its energy, diversity and enduring love of live music. We are Australia’s longest-running orchestra. For more than a century, we’ve brought world-class music to our community while championing Melbourne’s most exciting voices. 

In the years ahead, the MSO will continue to evolve - investing in new music, artists, communities and audiences, and ensuring orchestral music remains a vital part of Melbourne’s cultural life.

As a not-for-profit organisation, this future is made possible through the generosity of our community. Your support gives us the confidence to perform boldly, plan ambitiously and create experiences that remain open, welcoming and relevant.

This is an invitation to help guide the next ear of your MSO, and the future of music in Melbourne.

Thank you for your support.

The MSO is a registered charity and gifts of $2 and more are fully tax-deductible.
