Hello music

Join Our Orchestra—There’s a Part for Everyone!

Whether you’re an absolute beginner or an advanced player, we’ve got a spot for you in our fun ensemble sessions.

What Is the Orchestra Programme?

The Australian Schools Orchestra Programme (ASOP), developed by Hello Music Studios, brings high-quality music education to schools and communities. Whether you’re a complete beginner or already familiar with a few tunes, students of all ages and levels are welcome. We’ll offer junior and senior practice sessions tailored to the performance pieces, but all students will perform together as one cohesive orchestra. Our program is designed to help students build confidence, develop new skills, and make lasting friendships—all while collaborating to create beautiful music together!

Orchestra Practice Times

We offer weekly orchestra practice sessions throughout each term, held at our partnered studios to ensure accessibility and convenience for all students. Additionally, for those who prefer a more flexible option, we host a Saturday session at our local Prahran studio at 3pm, providing an opportunity for students to join the orchestra practice at a time that works best for them. These regular sessions allow students to consistently develop their musical skills, build team spirit, and prepare for exciting performances throughout the year.
