Queensland Symphony Orchestra brings your favourite animated moments to life.
From Disney’s first fairy-tale dreams to today’s CGI wonders, this concert traces the art of animation through the music that defines it.
On the podium is film-music maestro Nicholas Buc, guiding QSO through melodies that have shaped generations. Adding to the spectacle, our musicians perform in fun costumes so feel free to dress up and join the fun.
