Musica Viva Australia engaged Studio Bravo to redesign and rebuild its digital education resource platform, supporting teachers with performance-aligned content that reinforces MVA’s position as Australia’s leading provider of music education.

While the existing platform housed valuable material, it presented challenges in usability, navigation, and access. Teachers faced friction in discovering and engaging with content, while manual processes created unnecessary complexity for both users and administrators.

The project aimed to create a more intuitive, user-friendly platform that aligned with Musica Viva’s broader digital ecosystem, while improving how teachers access, manage, and interact with resources.

  2. Dynamic allocation of performance-specific resources based on bookings

  3. A centralised teacher dashboard for quick access to relevant content

  4. Introduction of universally accessible “Quick & Fun” activities

  5. Simplified navigation structure to replace complex legacy layouts

  6. Flexible content modules supporting text, video, and interactive tools

  7. Seamless integration of existing third-party educational tools

  8. Built within Musica Viva’s existing Umbraco CMS for continuity and efficiency

Outcomes

The redesigned platform delivers a significantly improved experience for teachers, making it easier to access and engage with performance-related content. By removing friction from onboarding and streamlining how resources are surfaced, the platform supports more efficient lesson preparation and classroom delivery.

For Musica Viva, the introduction of automated workflows reduces administrative overhead and simplifies platform management. The alignment with their broader digital ecosystem also creates a more cohesive and consistent experience across touchpoints.

Importantly, the platform establishes a strong foundation for future growth—balancing immediate usability improvements with a scalable structure that can support additional functionality over time.
