    About This Event

    Australian musicians play in most of the world鈥檚 leading orchestras, from the Berlin Philharmonic to our own 麻豆官网首页入口 orchestras. The Australian World Orchestra gathers many of them together, back home in Australia, to create a classical supergroup unlike anything on earth: the result, says conductor Zubin Mehta, 鈥榠s one of the top 10 orchestras in the world鈥�. But hearing is believing and tonight Mehta 鈥� a household name 鈥� conducts the AWO in its Proms debut, performing music that ranges from the multicoloured Expressionism of Anton Webern, to the rolling, sunlit slopes of Brahms鈥檚 expansive Second Symphony. Plus jewel-like miniatures by Debussy, exquisitely reworked by another great Australian musical export, Brett Dean.
