About Us
Dr Anthony Garcia
Founder & Artistic Director
“A healthy society requires a vibrant, flourishing arts sector. This is only possible if we support one and other and collaborate with an open mind. The SAO vision is to be a contributor, an advocate, an organisation that supports not only artists but the broader community to engage with innovative creative practices that illuminate the mind and uplift the soul. Through creative partnerships and community engagement we can collectively transform our understanding of the arts, how we engage with and support the arts and artists. Participation equals impact. I encourage people young and old to connect with us, share your story, ask questions, make suggestions, get involved and help us shape our cultural futures together.”
WHAT WE DO…
OUR FACILITATORS
MUSICAL FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Inclusivity through Music
Everyone, no matter what your background, instrument or age will find their musical voice through the SAO experience.
Connectedness through Music
Through our programs we offer pathways for you to connect, to yourself, to your community and to others.
Fostering a Healthy Society
Music-making and musical improvisation in particular have been proven to light up more regions of the brain than any activity.
Creating New Musical Pathways
Learning to improvise and build ideas by responding to our surrounds, to our feelings and interactions—through collaborative exploration—is fun, educational and inspires new ways to make music.
Cross Cultural Awareness
The SAO vision is ‘one world one music’. Discover how music can unite so the sounds of many different cultures can merge to create a new global harmony.
Music in You
We have all heard the expression “Don’t die with the music in you”. SAO brings you a relaxed and caring environment where you can explore the inner you.
No matter what age, skill level, instrument or style you play there is a SAO experience just for you!
