The Discovery Orchestra Information

We believe that noticing the many expressive aspects of music can evoke strong emotional responses from deep within us. Since 1996 Artistic Director George Marriner Maull and The Discovery Orchestra have helped audience members to personally experience these moments in music through our interactive Discovery Concerts©, television shows, online educational videos, radio programs and local community outreach for students and seniors. The Discovery Orchestra provides transformative listening encounters for people of all ages, from novices to knowledgeable classical music lovers. We teach the listening skills that help people really connect with classical music. Nationally and internationally since 2003, millions of viewers have experienced the joys of classical music listening through our award-winning productions distributed by American Public Television: Bach to the Future, Discover Beethoven's 5th, Discover Vivaldi's Four Seasons, Fall in Love with Music and Discover The Firebird. Our television shows and Discovery Orchestra Chat Videos© on YouTube are also available on Amazon and are streamed to classrooms nationally by Films Media Group, based in New York City. Our radio program Inside Music, produced in partnership with WWFM The Classical Network, is broadcast on the second and fourth Saturdays every month at 7:30 pm ET and streamed worldwide at wwfm.org. The Discovery Orchestra receives support from individuals, foundations, businesses and the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. It is a priority to distribute free or discount tickets to underserved constituents whenever possible. We invite you to call us at 973-379-2200 or visit our website at DiscoveryOrchestra.org. Our website includes music listening resources for teachers, students and lifelong learners of all ages!
