Sydney Symphony Orchestra: Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition
2 November @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm AEDT

Simone Young recently conducted Mussorgsky’s opera Khovanshchina in Berlin, performances hailed as ‘…quite simply, outstanding in every way’ (Seen and Heard International).
She brings that interpretive brilliance to Pictures at an Exhibition, with its heart-stopping contrasts, vivid stories and dramatic scenes that the Romantics are famous for. Close your eyes and be transported to The Great Gate of Kyiv.
Janáček’s Sinfonietta opens with twelve trumpets in an exciting fanfare, full of glowing pride. Dvořák’s Cello Concerto is arguably the greatest cello concerto of all, with beautiful melodies for the soloist to showcase their virtuosity. Deutsche Grammophon–signed cellist Kian Soltani makes his Sydney Symphony debut in an experience that will fire your imagination and fill your heart.
