An evening of storytelling – no words required.
Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, inspired by One Thousand and One Nights, conjures ancient stories in sweeping detail. The QSO Concertmaster’s solo violin becomes the voice of Scheherazade herself, spinning her story through each movement.
Grieg’s Piano Concerto offers a different kind of storytelling, performed by celebrated Australian pianist Piers Lane. With its unforgettable opening, sweeping melodies and folk-tinged charm, it remains one of the most beloved concertos in the repertoire.
Opening the concert is Release by Ella Macens, a rising voice in Australian music. Commissioned for the Sydney Symphony Orchestra’s 50 Fanfares project, this atmospheric work is a meditation on bravery, stillness, and the courage to return to self.
Let the stories unfold.
