We’re more than music

MSO not only makes great music, we can help you plan great parties! We’ll help you select the ideal spot for celebration from among the best locations in Manhattan and the surrounding area. And most important, we’ll help you select the musical style that best suits your party environment. Music for a private garden reception under a backyard tent. Music for a late night soiree in a Soho loft. Music for cocktails aboard a yacht sailing leisurely up the Hudson.
