Westlake Symphony Orchestra Recordings

In 2015, SOUNZ facilitated the Westlake Symphony Orchestra Recordings, a project to record and promote New Zealand orchestral works suitable for school and non-professional orchestras. This has expanded to an annual event that includes filming of the performance. Video of all the works recorded so far can be found below.

You can also view a general list of suggested repertoire for amateur and youth orchestras here.
