Hear the Sydney Symphony shine under the baton of Charles Dutoit with two great symphonies by Saint-Saens and Mozart.

Description

In his Third Symphony, Saint-Saëns takes a single, impetuous musical idea and builds it into something powerful and richly coloured. For the final transformation the organ enters with the big tune (Babe!). This is your chance to hear the Grand Organ of the Sydney Opera House in action in this “symphony with organ”.

In his Third Symphony, Saint-Saëns takes a single, impetuous musical idea and builds it into something powerful and richly coloured. For the final transformation, he pulls out the stops – literally – and the organ enters with the big tune (Babe!). This is your chance to hear the Grand Organ of the Sydney Opera House in action – as part of the fabric of the orchestra in this “symphony with organ”.

This is also a chance to hear the virtuosity of the Sydney Symphony musicians. Our soloists are drawn from the ranks, highlighting the brilliance of our own players in a super-concerto by Swiss composer Frank Martin. Martin’s virtuoso wit and sophisticated harmonies are introduced by one of Mozart’s most buoyant symphonies – music that sings and dances and isn’t afraid to show off!

MOZART Symphony No.29
MARTIN Concerto for 7 winds
SAINT-SAËNS Symphony No.3 (Organ Symphony)
