Saturday 20 June from 4pm to 5:20pm
The Maria Anna Mozart Concert Tour is setting out to bring one of history’s most extraordinary untold stories to concert halls across Australia, shining a timely spotlight on the persistent gender gap in classical music programming, and featuring a highly anticipated performance by Sydney Youth Orchestras, bringing Maria Anna Mozart’s story to a new generation.
Inspired by the AACTA Award-winning documentary ‘Mozart’s Sister’, the tour will feature orchestras and ensembles nationwide performing the film’s powerful original score live, composed by one of Australia’s most celebrated composers, Jessica Wells, with visuals from filmmaker Madeleine Hetherton-Miau.
The performance by Sydney Youth Orchestras, featuring The Peter Seymour Orchestra conducted by James Pensini and The Richard Gill Chamber Orchestra conducted by Kate Morgan, is happening on June 20 at the John Clancy Auditorium, UNSW, Kensington. It will be followed by further performances by Symphony Central Coast (June 28) and the Sunshine Coast Symphony Orchestra (October).
