The Sydney Symphony Orchestra makes its long-awaited return to Canberra with a program of music for – and inspired by – dance.

With folk dances and music for ballet, Conductor in Residence Benjamin Northey leads the Orchestra in this program including high-energy works by Stravinsky and Kodály.

Be moved by Stravinsky’s suite from The Firebird, an enchanting folk tale that bursts off the stage in a riot of colour and sound. And Zoltán Kodály draws from the folk music of Eastern Europe in the energetic Dances of Galánta.

Don’t miss the Sydney Symphony’s debut at Snow Concert Hall!
