An Ode to Joy 

The ‘Ode to Joy’, the finale of Beethoven’s irrepressible Ninth Symphony, is one of the most famous melodies ever written. It’s a special moment in music that makes us feel connected to each other, and for over 200 years it has engulfed us in its boundless energy. When you hear it live, the power of so many triumphant voices is astonishing.

Chief Conductor Simone Young is world-renowned for her interpretation of the great symphonies and draws everything out of this life-affirming masterpiece, celebrating Beethoven’s vision of universal harmony through the power of music with a superb, all-Australasian quartet of singers.   
Demonstrating the continued power of Beethoven's profoundly human message, acclaimed First Nations composer William Barton has composed a new piece as a companion to this timeless symphony. Inspired by the themes in Beethoven’s work, Barton’s piece will provide a fresh, contemporary and uniquely Australian perspective. 

With ageless exuberance and exciting new music, this is a concert experience that will leave you glowing with life. What better way to conclude an extraordinary season of unforgettable music.
