Moora Haybales Concert! Saturday, 29th March 2025

Perth Symphony Orchestra (PSO) and the Shire of Moora, with funding from the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries, have joined together to bring you Green Shoots Moora.

The PSO-led program has brought Moora and surrounds-based musicians together from the community and schools to form ensembles, supported by a dedicated PSO musician who will help coach, mentor and teach.

The program will culminate in a spectacular performance on Saturday 29th March 2025 that will feature the Moora Green Shoots ensembles, set alongside the Orchestra, in a 'theatre' made of hay bales.

Location and tickets will be released in early 2025. 

What is Green Shoots Moora?

Green Shoots is an initiative run by Perth Symphony Orchestra in conjunction with the Shire of Moora. It aims to unite local individuals to form community groups and choirs who will come together on a weekly basis to rehearse (weekly/fortnightly online and once a month in person Residencies at the Moora Performing Arts Centre). You can be a newly formed rock group, jazz group, trio of guitars…you name it! Professional musicians from Perth Symphony Orchestra will lead monthly workshops with the groups to impart musical knowledge and training to ensure the groups are performance ready for a community concert in March 2025 where these groups will be backed by the mighty power of the Perth Symphony Orchestra.
