London has been a centre of Classical music and great composers and musicians travelled or stayed in London such as Handel, Mozart and Haydn.
The London symphonies, sometimes called the Salomon symphonies after Johann Peter Salomon who introduced London to Joseph Haydn, were composed by Joseph Haydn between 1791 and 1795. They can be categorized into two groups: Symphonies Nos. 93–98, which were composed during Haydn's first visit to London, and Surprise Symphony is one of most famous work composed in London and other works were composed after visited London.

Auckland Sinfonietta, based in the North Shore, was founded in 2016 by Dr Jucheol Wang who is the musical director. The goals of the Sinfonietta are to promote orchestral repertoire and variety of music and present it to local audiences.
It also seeks to nurture and present music of different ethnicities in an effort to promote multiculturalism and therefore enrich our society’s tastes and appreciation. By doing this it aims to establish a niche in the Auckland orchestral scene that is currently not filled by the other orchestral bodies in Auckland.
The mission of the Auckland Sinfonietta Trust is to use music and the performing arts as a means of facilitating communication between various ethnic groups and to use these arts to promote relationships between Eastern and Western cultures in New Zealand and overseas.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
