The suite from one of his most enduring ballets, <em>Swan Lake <\/em>is passionate story about love and betrayal with sublime music. Tchaikovsky&#8217;a music is so grand and transcendent that it is continually performed not only in ballet houses but in concert halls around the world.<\/p>\n<div class=\"prod-detail-description\">\n<p>Opening the concert is Rossini\u2019s overture to his opera <em>The Thieving Magpie<\/em>. A signature piece from the master of Italian opera, it\u2019s a work of jubilant themes and musical invention.<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with the magic of the evening, the orchestra will perform Ravel\u2019s <em>Mother Goose<\/em> suite which takes its inspiration from fairy-tale characters Thumbelina, Beauty and the Beast and Sleeping Beauty, painted as if in watercolour by Ravel\u2019s gentle musical palette. The most magical music is saved for last,<em>\u00a0The Fairy Garden<\/em>, which blossoms into a radiant and spectacular finale.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sydneysymphony.com\/concerts-and-tickets\/whats-on\/event\/music-from-swan-lake\">Bookings<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sydney Symphony Orchestra performs a collection of magical music written for the ballet by Tchaikovsky, Rossini and Ravel.\u00a0Principal Cellist Umberto Clerici&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26601,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"sls_format":[],"class_list":["post-26600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-shows"],"acf":{"deck":"","is_featured":false,"media_type":"standard","audio_embed":"","video_url":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
