National Members Council
National Members Council
Musica Viva Australia’s Members Council is made up of individuals who have each made a significant contribution to music, music education or to the organisation. The Members Council creates a special two-way channel of communication with our stakeholders across the country, providing advocacy, support and advice to Musica Viva. Additionally, this group of people is the electoral body that nominates Board Directors, thus having a very direct impact on Musica Viva’s future.
