Auckland Philharmonia 2026 Season — Now on Sale!

Notes Fund

You can help provide the music scores that we need for the Auckland Philharmonia's 2026 season.

It seems a simple observation to make, but for the hundreds of pieces of music that the Auckland Philharmonia performs each year, every player needs a score on their stand to guide them. The Auckland Philharmonia spends over $40,000 per annum on scores. This fund enables Auckland Philharmonia supporters to share the joy of music with others either by donating towards a specific score or making a general donation.

It is important for the orchestra to purchase scores outright rather than hiring them whenever possible.

As a Notes Fund donor, you will receive an invitation to the annual “Meet the Librarian” morning tea and library tour, recognition on our website and in our donor programmes, and if you fund a specific piece of music, your support will be recognised in the conductor’s copy of the score.

It means we can preserve all our own string bowings and other performance markings that are particular to our orchestra, so we don’t have to waste more time than necessary preparing the music for subsequent performances.
