"Conducting this orchestra is like lassoing galaxies" – Sir Simon Rattle
This November at the Sydney Opera House experience the capstone Mahler event of the year when internationally renowned conductor Alexander Briger returns home to lead the acclaimed Australian World Orchestra, performing one of the 20th century’s most celebrated orchestral masterpieces, Mahler 9.
An incomparable musical accomplishment, Mahler 9 is one of the most enthralling, emotional and sublime experiences you’ll ever have at the symphony.
Join us for a gala evening with an extraordinary array of Australian musicians, drawn from the Berlin and Hong Kong Philharmonics, the Chicago, London, New Zealand and Australian national symphony orchestras and ensembles, as they combine under the unassailable banner of the Australian World Orchestra to present an unforgettable “orchestral Rolls Royce” concert experience.
