The Sydney Symphony comes to Goulburn for one night only, with a concert that celebrates the rich and triumphant sound of brass instruments and the Orchestra’s world-class brass section.
From grand entrances to triumphant finales, brass instruments are often called upon for music’s most moving moments. And the Goulburn Performing Arts Centre is the ideal venue to experience all the glory of these gleaming instruments.
It was artworks by his friend Viktor Hartmann that inspired Mussorgsky to write Pictures at an Exhibition, and the brilliant musical colours of the brass will bring them to life. The towering final movement, The Great Gate of Kyiv, is one of classical music’s best-loved moments, and is even more spectacular as a brass-only fanfare.
The music of the Baroque is known for being grand, bright and sparkling, and each member of the section gets to shine in an enchanting and elegant suite of music from Purcell’s The Fairy Queen.
Coupled with gorgeous shorter works by John Williams and Morten Lauridsen, there is no music better suited to the rich, glowing soundworld of brass instruments than these shimmering classics.
The program includes: John Williams, Fanfare for a Festive Occasion,
Purcell arr. Crees, The Fairy Queen: Suite, Morten LAURIDSEN Lauridsen, O magnum mysterium, Mussirgsky, arr. Howarth Pictures at an Exhibition, Artists, Musicians of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
