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.
The Orchestra is a Crown Entity, funded by the Government, but in order to build its sound and quality, and to keep it accessible to all New Zealanders, extra funding is needed. Generous support from Sponsors and Supporters makes this possible.
