Manhattan School of Music students have a wide variety of opportunities to perform at MSM and at well-known venues around New York City.

The Manhattan School of Music Symphony, Philharmonia, and Chamber Sinfonia provide orchestral instrumentalists with the opportunity to participate in three separate series of concerts which are open to the public. The orchestral program is enriched by selected guest conductors for concerts and readings. Our orchestras have performed in venues such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Merkin Concert Hall. Information about chamber music can be found in the Instrumental Chamber Music Handbook.

Jazz ensembles also present numerous concerts and often feature jazz greats as guest soloists. The Jazz Orchestra, one of the School’s three large jazz ensembles, has appeared at festivals and conventions throughout the country. The Jazz Orchestra and MSM’s Afro-Cuban Jazz Band perform twice an academic year at Dizzy’s Jazz Club Coca Cola at Lincoln Center. All jazz students participate in small combos each semester.
