WHO WE ARE

The AIO is Australia’s first Symphony Orchestra dedicated to performing Indian music.  

Founded in 2022 by brothers Sagar and Suraj Nagaraj, the AIO combines a full western symphony orchestra with Indian instruments and vocalists to create a unique, fusion experience live in concert.

Musicians in the symphony orchestra have performed with top orchestras around Australia including the Sydney Conservatorium Orchestra, Opera Australia Orchestra, and the Australian World Orchestra.

Indian instrumentalists and singers in the orchestra have performed with top Bollywood artists like Arijit Singh, Shreya Ghoshal, Jubin Nautiyal, and Kumar Sanu.

In its inaugural season, the AIO presented 2 hit concerts, "Sydney to Mumbai" & "Symphony of Lights" to capacity crowds.

In 2025, the orchestra is preparing to showcase the magic of A.R. Rahman's music in an unforgettable Diwali concert weekend. 

The AIO is the exemplification of the unique multicultural landscape of Australia and aims to inspire future generations of musicians in Australia and around the world.
