Live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is the first live album by Australian electronic duo Flight Facilities with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.

The album was recorded live at the Annual Southern Airlines concert at the Melbourne Festival in 2015.

The award prompted controversy from The Australian's Matthew Westwood, The Sydney Morning Herald's Bernard Zuel and Tone Deaf's Greg Moskovitch and amongst the Australian classical community, questioning how an electronic duo were nominated in this category.

[3] Toby Chadd, manager of ABC Classics, told The Australian: "The album consists of Flight Facilities' original electronic music with the accompaniment of an orchestra.

An ARIA representative informed The Australian that the "creative collaboration" between Flight Facilities and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra met eligibility criteria for the award and the winner was determined by a "specialist classic music ARIA judging panel".
