Under the baton of Johannes Fritzsch, and featuring the glorious voices of Rebecca Cassidy and Rosario La Spina, Queensland Symphony Orchestra will hone in on the ultra-emotional moments – the greatest of great scenes – from the world of opera and ballet. The exuberance of first love, the joy of youth, blind optimism not realising that tragedy is around the corner – it’s all here, live and loud, in this glorious instalment of our much-loved Music on Sundays concert series. It will be melodic, dramatic, and as passionate as love itself.
