Glasshouse Port Macquarie presents
The Sydney Symphony: Music That Moves You
The Sydney Symphony Orchestra returns to Port Macquarie in 2026 for one night only, with a concert of music for – and inspired by – dance.
With folk dances and music for ballet, Conductor in Residence Benjamin Northey leads the Orchestra in this program including high-energy works by Stravinsky and Kodály.
Be moved by Stravinsky’s suite from The Firebird, an enchanting folk tale that bursts off the stage in a riot of colour and sound. And Zoltán Kodály draws from the folk music of Eastern Europe in the energetic Dances of Galánta.
Don’t miss your only chance to hear the Sydney Symphony in Port Macquarie this year!
"Northey and the orchestra were on top form in a beautifully structured performance. The bond and empathy created by Northey’s role as Conductor in Residence was very much in evidence and this was a cohesive, finely judged and, ultimately, thrilling performance" - STEVE MOFFATT, LIMELIGHT.
