This year, more than ever, we have realised the important role that the NZSO has to play in building connections and bringing people together through the universal language of music. As we move into our 75th year, we rely on the generosity of our Supporters to deliver our vitally important programmes. Donations of all sizes to the NZSO Foundation have a direct impact on what the Orchestra can achieve each year.
The NZSO is your national symphony orchestra. We’ve been playing for Aotearoa New Zealand since 1946 and continue to provide exciting and inspiring musical experiences for Kiwis of all ages with the support of the NZSO Foundation.
We are proud of what we achieve with your support.
When the NZSO tours New Zealand, we play to over 100,000 people across the country. Thousands more enjoy the NZSO’s work through our On Demand digital channel live.nzso.co.nz, as well as RNZ Concert’s broadcasts and recordings. We also nurture New Zealand’s best young musical talent through the NZSO National Youth Orchestra and our Outreach and Education programmes.
Assists with mentoring young music students around New Zealand online.
Enables 10 children along with their teacher to attend an exceptional NZSO concert free of charge.
Helps us host school groups for exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences at NZSO open rehearsals.
Please help the NZSO continue to play for Aotearoa New Zealand by making a gift to our Annual Appeal. Any contribution – large or small – is greatly appreciated and makes a direct impact on the NZSO’s activities.
