Musica Viva Australia
Music is our passion. Our goal is to bring it to as many people as possible. Musica Viva seeks to be the leading organisation in the world for connecting audiences with chamber music, inspiring personal fulfillment and cultural vibrancy. Founded in 1945, Musica Viva is Australia’s oldest independent professional performing arts organisation. As an independent non-profit arts organisation, Musica Viva relies on the essential support of donors, funding partners, government support, corporate partners, and the many volunteers who freely give their time. Thanks to their help, Musica Viva continues to share the delights of chamber music with audiences throughout Australia, presenting over 2000 concerts in capital cities, regional communities and schools - not to mention the national and international artists we support throughout our vast range of programs. Musica Viva continues to challenge the boundaries of chamber music, turning it from its conservative origins into a rich celebration of intimacy, vitality and artistry.
