Our Donors
A heartfelt thank you to our generous family of supporters.
Thanks to the tremendous generosity of you and your fellow Brandenburg supporters, we have established nothing short of cultural excellence as Australia’s national baroque orchestra for over 30 years. Our dream is to continue doing exactly this – achieving excellence, inspiring audiences, and sharing our music with you for many more years to come.
