Grandeur and Happiness |

Michael Milton - Conductor
Soloists: Samantha Hennessy - flute Philippa McAuliffe - harp Sibelius - Finlandia Mozart - Concerto for Flute and Harp in C major Brahms - Symphony No. 3 in F major Join us for a celebration of freedom and happiness in Brahms's Symphony No. 3, whose bold opening chords are built around the German composer's personal motto 'frei aber froh' ('free but happy'). On hearing the symphony for the first time, Dvořák remarked 'without exaggerating that this work surpasses his first two symphonies; if not, perhaps, in grandeur and powerful conception—then certainly in—beauty.' We will also be treated to Sibelius's rousing tone poem Finlandia and not one, but two soloists in Mozart's beautiful Concerto for Flute and Harp in C major. Tickets are available online until 1 hour before the session time. Please have your tickets ready to present at the door, either printed or on your smartphone. All advertised prices are inclusive of a 50c per ticket booking fee, which will be added to your order during check-out, and include a complimentary printed or digital program. Any remaining tickets will be available at the door from 11am (11.30am session) or 2pm (2.30pm session) - cash only. However, due to strict COVID-19 capacity restrictions, we encourage guests to book early online to avoid disappointment. All seating is general admission. To help manage capacity limits, you will need to select either stalls or dress circle when booking. Note that the dress circle has limited visibility to the front of the orchestra and is only accessible by stairs. For the comfort of others, we kindly ask that children 12 and under are supervised by an adult at all times and remain quiet while the orchestra is performing. Refunds (excluding the 50c TryBooking fee) will be available to all ticket holders in the case of postponement/cancellation, or if you are unable to attend the event due to illness. COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS During these challenging times, the safety and wellbeing of our audience members and players remains our top priority.
