AMI’s relationship with the orchestra is in its 14th year and has matured into an award-winning and mutually beneficial partnership that goes well beyond a simple funding arrangement. AMI’s support is designed to enable CSO to focus on what it does best – its music.
As a mutual company owned by its policyholders and the largest wholly New Zealand owned fire and general insurance company, AMI has a strong affinity with the communities in which it operates.

AMI recognises the importance of the arts within the community and the role they play in fostering creativity, innovation, participation and personal achievement. For this reason we are very pleased to contribute to the ongoing success and development of CSO. Central to the relationship is our mutual support of New Zealand talent and local communities. AMI’s commitment over the years has enabled CSO to try new directions and break new ground for performance music.

We take tremendous pride in the fact that we are helping to support an orchestra of this talent and calibre. Thank you to CSO for 51 wonderful years of music.
