Mozart & Brahms
Reimaginings
Mozart’s Grande Sestetto is an unusual take on his already experimental Sinfonia Concertante. Recrafted for six instruments by an anonymous arranger, it magically realises the grandeur of the orchestral original, reimagined for the powerful intimacy of a small ensemble.
In Brahms, another pioneer emerges.
By weaving a second viola and cello into the standard string quartet, this rich and velvety writing takes on new meaning, blooming into arrangements of beauty that echo through the ages.

SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY
The Sydney Symphony will continue to apply NSW Public Health Orders as they relate to ticketing and seating arrangements. As these Orders can change at very short notice, we will be allocating seats closer in time to concert dates than we have in previous seasons. This will allow us to maintain a COVID-19 safe environment.
