Your sound. Your story. Your city.
For 120 years, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra has helped shape the sound of the city – and the many communities, places and people within it.
Open Score is a community composition project created as part of the MSO’s 120th anniversary, which invited the people of Melbourne, Victoria and beyond to contribute their own musical response to the shared theme Sense of Place, shaped by where we come from, where we live, and what we carry with us.
Open Score was open to anyone, of any age or background – no formal musical training required.
Selected works are recorded by MSO musicians and shared across our digital platforms – giving everyday composers the opportunity to hear their music brought to life by a world-class orchestra.
