Event Series Brahms & Rachmaninov

Queensland Symphony Orchestra: Brahms & Rachmaninov

QPAC Corner Melbourne St and Grey St, South Bank, QLD, Australia
Illustrious conductor Jaime Martín joins our musicians for this spectacular concert. Paganini composed an array of tunes for violin – and Rachmaninov was such a fan that he borrowed one and wrote 24 flashy variations of his own. Pianist Denis Kozhukhin will perform them all in one rhapsodic sitting, every…

Event Series Violin Virtuoso

Queensland Symphony Orchestra: Violin Virtuoso

QPAC Corner Melbourne St and Grey St, South Bank, QLD, Australia
The meaning of Begleitungsmusik zu einer Lichtspielscene is simple: it’s music to accompany a film. So just like your favourite soundtracks, you’ll hear an eruption of character, mood, and emotion filling the hall. Stravinsky himself called it 'the best piece of real film music ever written' – but the plot twist is,…

Event Series A Heavenly View

Queensland Symphony Orchestra: A Heavenly View

Queensland Symphony Orchestra Studio Cnr Grey and Russell Streets, South Brisbane, QLD, Australia
There’s Mahler, then there’s Mahler reduced – and with a composer of this mammoth scale, it can feel refreshing to take the edge off. He is famous for blowing the full-scale symphony out of the water: loud becomes explosive, soft becomes heart-rending. In this modern arrangement of his Symphony No.4,…

Queensland Symphony Orchestra: Heroic Tales

QPAC Corner Melbourne St and Grey St, South Bank, QLD, Australia
Strauss injected multiple musical quotations into his self-referential masterpiece Ein Heldenleben – so you’re bound to recognise a few when you hear it live. Spot your favourite Straussian sound bite or simply revel in the triumphant melodies that earned the piece the title of A Hero’s Life. Conductor Nicholas Carter…

What’s a symphony without a bit of life or death? Conductor Laureate Johannes Fritzsch will meet these themes head-on when he leads our Orchestra through Bruckner Symphony No.9 – and you’re coming with him. When rumbling strings start building that tension, it can only mean one thing: it’s the beginning…
