Step inside the rehearsal room with the Auckland Philharmonia!

This exclusive experience invites secondary and tertiary music students to observe a dress rehearsal, followed by an interactive Q&A with our conductor, guest artist and orchestra musicians.

Held in the Auckland Town Hall, students enjoy the rare opportunity to observe the orchestra at work as they prepare for a performance. They'll enjoy a full programme of a Main Stage concert with the best seats in the house, before gaining valuable insight directly from professional musicians.

Each event is accompanied by a study guide, sent in advance and aligned with NCEA learning outcomes. The guides provide musical analysis and historical context behind the repertoire, and include Te Reo Māori translations of key terms and concepts.
