WORLD PREMIERE

Queensland Symphony Orchestra and Chief Conductor Umberto Clerici bring to you Mahler’s epic Sixth Symphony – an orchestral work that’s grandiosity is evident from the sheer size of the orchestra on stage, numbering over 80 musicians.

Across four huge movements, Mahler deals with the idea of fate as something inescapable, from the relentless march that opens the work, to the famous ‘hammer blows’ in the finale (which have to be seen to be believed!).

Coupled with the world premiere of Justin Williams’ First Symphony, this will be one of the most epic concerts of the 2023 QSO season.
