ABOUT NWS
Founded in 1987 by the trailblazing conductor and musical maverick Michael Tilson Thomas and Miami philanthropists Ted and Lin Arison, New World Symphony prepares young musicians for leadership roles in classical music worldwide. NWS is a laboratory for how music is taught, presented and experienced. With an orchestra made up of dynamic young musicians at the start of their careers, each granted a three-year fellowship, NWS offers in-depth exposure to traditional and modern repertoire, professional development and entrepreneurial training and personalized experiences working with leading guest conductors, soloists and visiting faculty. Each year new Fellows join the orchestra, and our alumni corps of over 1,150 Fellows have taken on roles in orchestras and musical ensembles around the globe—maybe even in your community!
