CIRQUE DE LA SYMPHONIE WITH SSO
The Sydney Symphony Orchestra (SSO) will once again be running away to the circus, joining forces with Cirque de la Symphonie this month for three breath-taking performances.
The Sydney Opera House will be filled with high-flying acrobats, jugglers, contortionists, dancers and strongmen. All of these acts will unfold to the beautiful tones of the SSO, guided by Australian conductor Guy Nobel.
Nobel, who also conducted the previous Cirque de la Symphonie concerts in 2013, says the concerts will be “awe-inspiring”.
“It really is like circus ballet,” he said. “Witnessing the sound of a full symphony orchestra paired with the amazing physicality of a troupe of world-class acrobats and circus performers is simply breathtaking.” (AMal)
