With entertaining and informative hosts, our Music on Sundays concerts are the perfect pre-lunch activity in the heart of South Bank, in a convenient 90-minute timeslot.

Season 2026 Subscriptions are on sale now. Individual concerts will go on sale to the general public on Monday, 17 November 2025 at 9am.

Led by conductor Tianyi Lu, this concert opens with two commanding fanfares: Copland’s iconic tribute to the common man, and Joan Tower’s powerful counterpoint for the uncommon woman.

Chausson’s Poème follows unfolding in a single arc of introspective beauty, showcasing the expressive talent of Associate Concertmaster Glenn Christensen.

From there, we enter the rich world of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. You’ll hear selections from all four acts from the sweeping dances and tender scenes to the dramatic character pieces.

A journey through proclamation, introspection, and storytelling, woven into one unforgettable program.
