Giving’ with Queensland Baroque.

​

Queensland Baroque Orchestra belongs to its community. Every performance is a shared experience — a moment where musicians and audiences come together to be moved, inspired and connected through music that has endured for centuries.

 

Behind each concert, however, is a growing challenge. The true cost of delivering the performances you love has risen sharply. From supporting our musicians and soloists, to securing venues, transporting instruments, and allowing the rehearsal time that excellence demands, the financial pressures on live performance continue to intensify. Ticket sales alone can no longer carry this weight.

 

That is why your support matters now more than ever. By contributing to Queensland Baroque Orchestra’s 2026 Fundraising Campaign, you help ensure that these moments of beauty, reflection and joy remain part of our shared cultural life. Your generosity directly sustains the quality and care that define every QBO concert.

 

When you give, you are not just funding a performance — you are safeguarding a living tradition, supporting artists in your community, and keeping extraordinary music alive for future generations. With your help, Queensland Baroque Orchestra can continue to bring world-class music to Queensland, enriching hearts, minds and lives — together.
