MSO for Schools | Melbourne Symphony Orchestra

The MSO brings together wonderful artists, stunning repertoire and an impressive array of guest conductors to inspire students and support the work of teachers in the classroom.

MSO For Schools includes concerts for students of all ages and abilities, learning resources for generalist and specialist music teachers to use in the classroom, opportunities for advanced students to extend themselves, and pathways for schools that have never engaged with the MSO before.

Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor, our tickets remain at the amazing price of $9 continuing to make MSO For Schools accessible for all.
