About Us

The Blue Mountains Concert Society was established in 1966 and has established a reputation of presenting outstanding classical music concerts. The Society was established at the Springwood Civic Centre with the purpose of presenting classical music concerts in the lower Blue Mountains.

The Society is delighted to have Simon Tedeschi as patron for 2010. Simon will be playing for us with one of Australia’s most brilliant flautists Jane Rutter on the 2nd of October and in a dynamic duo with versatile jazz pianist Kevin Hunt on the 24th July.  

The number of concerts in each yearly series and the variety of music presented has expanded over the years, as well as audience numbers.

The standard of concerts has continued to improve, now attracting many overseas musical groups and outstanding Australian artists.

In addition, the Society encourages the development of young musical talent in the Lower Blue Mountains, with young talent performing at each concert and providing an ongoing education program by recognised artists (master classes) or music educators to individual young artists and local schools.

Regular concert goers are encouraged to become members of the Society and subscribe to the full year series of concerts, or a lesser number of concerts. Subscriptions are sent out at the beginning of each yearly concert series.

A price discount is provided to full year and part year subscribers. Members who subscribe to the full series of concerts receive one free concert, as well as a price discount.

The Blue Mountains Concert Society is managed by a group of volunteers who are members of the Society.  All members of the Society are encouraged to join the Committee and participate in the ongoing management of the Society.

Support for the organisation is also provided by a number of sponsors and donors that are integral to the ongoing success of the Society.

The Blue Mountains Concert Society is a non-profit organisation.
