ABOUT CONCERTS FOR ALL
Who We Are
We are Concerts for All, a not-for-profit organisation founded by music educators with a mission to develop Sydney's future classical musicians and audiences. Operating under the Music Development Association Inc. (INC2400330), we focus on bringing regular, high-quality and accessible classical concerts to children and families across Sydney while addressing the current gap in music education—with a focus on music listening and appreciation.
From families discovering classical music for the first time to young musicians developing their craft, we create welcoming spaces where music can be experienced, understood and enjoyed. Through our concerts, listening programs and educational initiatives, we aim to inspire deeper musical appreciation, encouraging more people to engage with classical music, learn instruments and develop their musicality from an early age.
