Music on Sundays 4: Symphonic Stories

With entertaining and informative hosts, the Music on Sundays concerts are the perfect pre-lunch activity in the heart of South Bank, in a convenient 90 minute timeslot

Conductor Nil Venditti leads Queensland Symphony Orchestra (QSO) through a program of bold contrasts and vibrant textures. 

At its heart is Copland’s Clarinet Concerto, performed by Section Principal Irit Silver, a work of spacious lyricism and jazzy rhythmic drive.

The concert also features playful gems from Bernstein and Gershwin, two jubilant movements from Tchaikovsky’s Polish Symphony, a world premiere from QSO Compose alumnus Jonathan Platz, and more.
