The Symphonic World of Dance

Experience classical music that makes you move in this special presentation by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

Music has an incredible power to make us feel good and get us moving. In this unique Sydney Symphony Family Event, hear how music for dance has made its way into concert halls around the world, from the waltzes of Vienna and the folk dances of eastern Europe to the vibrant energy of the can-can and the irresistible rhythms of Brazil.

With well-known classics performed alongside lesser-known gems, this is an unmissable live performance and a great way to introduce children to the excitement of the orchestra!
