Ways to Get Involved

The NZSO is owned by the people of New Zealand. The Orchestra reflects the heritage and diversity of our country through commissioned works by New Zealanders, development of young players through our education programmes and by providing New Zealand's top musicians a full-time professional Orchestra to work in.

To keep the Orchestra available to all New Zealanders, private support is needed. Generous support from Sponsors and Supporters makes this possible.
