Program notes
“Being able to absorb a concert is a wonderful experience and when I understand the background to the composition of a piece of music and how it fits in historically, it becomes a far richer occasion. Good program notes not only inform a performance, they can also become a great momento.”
Mary Borland, Sydney Symphony concert goer.

Symphony Services International maintains a relationship with top music writers, regularly commissioning notes about repertoire, both popular and rarely performed. Learn more about our writers from our Writers Hub – link.

Goodear Editions is Symphony Services International’s music publishing arm. Commencing with Richard Strauss’ Suite from Der Rosenkavalier in 2010, Goodear Editions releases newly typeset performance materials of standard orchestral repertoire on a regular basis.
Developed to help protect the hearing of orchestral musicians, Goodear significantly reduces decibel noise for musicians. It is used by professional, youth and community orchestras, schools and bands around the world.
It has a padded headpiece, fits any stand and is height adjustable. The design provides clear forward and sideways sight-lines while ensuring maximum noise-reduction. Purchase our robust tripod stand or simply put the headpiece on your own stands. Find out more about Goodear.
