Support Us

The Metropolitan Orchestra (TMO) is more than just an orchestra—it is a thriving musical family dedicated to making world-class orchestral music accessible to everyone. Under the leadership of Artistic Director and Chief Conductor Sarah-Grace Williams, TMO delivers electrifying mainstage Met Concerts, engaging Children’s Cushion Concerts, and a vibrant Chamber Music Festival—all while championing new Australian compositions. Every concert, every note, and every program is designed to inspire audiences and support exceptional musicians at every stage of their journey.

A Legacy of Musical Excellence

For 17 years, TMO has provided outstanding live performance opportunities for Australia’s finest musicians. With limited full-time orchestral positions in the country, many talented artists struggle to sustain performance careers. TMO bridges the gap, offering professional musicians, educators, and emerging artists the chance to perform at the highest level while developing their craft. Through flexible and inclusive programs, TMO fosters a collaborative environment where musicians thrive and audiences experience unforgettable performances.

Championing Australian Musicians

TMO is deeply committed to nurturing the next generation of Australian musicians. Through TMO Junior, young instrumentalists participate in hands-on development programs, including the Junior String Camp and the Young Instrumentalist Festival. These initiatives provide invaluable mentoring and performance experiences, ensuring that Australia’s young musicians receive the support and inspiration they need to pursue a career in music. TMO also champions new Australian music by commissioning and performing works by homegrown composers, giving fresh voices a platform to be heard.

Your Support Makes the Music Possible

Every donation helps sustain this vital musical ecosystem. Your support enables TMO to continue delivering exceptional concerts, create transformative educational experiences, and commission groundbreaking new works. It allows TMO to keep ticket prices accessible so more Australians can experience the magic of live orchestral music. Most importantly, your generosity directly fuels the musicians who bring these extraordinary performances to life.

Driven by Passion, Defined by Excellence

TMO operates with a lean and dedicated team, making every dollar count. For almost two decades we have achieved remarkable success on limited resources, proving that passion and commitment can drive artistic excellence. But to do more to expand our education programs, to commission more Australian works, to ensure long-term sustainability—we need your support.
