Symphony Under the Stars – Cairns

Presented by Queensland Symphony Orchestra and Cairns Regional Council.

A night of music beneath the stars in Cairns with Queensland Symphony Orchestra.

As evening settles over Munro Martin Parklands, a symphony of music will rise into the night sky. Join Queensland Symphony Orchestra for an unforgettable evening of live orchestral music under the stars, where passion, power, and beauty come together in this spectacular concert.

Conductor Nil Venditti leads QSO through a program of bold contrasts and vibrant textures. 

At its heart is Copland's Clarinet Concerto, performed by QSO Section Principal Irit Silver, a work of spacious lyricism and jazzy rhythmic drive.

This concert also features playful gems from Bernstein and Gershwin, alongside two exuberant movements from Tchaikovsky's Polish Symphony, a world premiere by QSO Compose alumnus (and Atherton local) Jonathan Platz, and more.

Pack a picnic, bring your family and friends, and be swept away by the magic of Queensland Symphony Orchestra in the heart of Cairns.
