The UNSW Orchestra and UNSW Wind Band are the two Large Instrumental Music Ensembles (LIME) on the University of New South Wales campus at Kensington.

In every sense, the LIME are community ensembles. Our players include students and staff from all over the University, as well as UNSW alumni. And our audiences are drawn from both the on-campus and off-campus communities.

Our ensembles are the longest continuously-running inter-faculty instrumental ensembles among all those located on Australian university campuses.

The Orchestra and the Wind Band present concerts regularly on campus, and occasionally off campus as well.

We invite you to attend our concerts and, if you play an orchestral instrument, to inquire about playing with us .

If you would like to support our music making financially, please become a donor to our fund at the UNSW Foundation. Donations to this fund are tax deductible.

You’ll find lots of information about these matters and more on this website.
