The Metropolitan Orchestra’s (TMO) ground-breaking Classical Dreamtime concert, originally performed live at The Seymour Centre in March 2020 and led by TMO Chief Conductor and Artistic Director Sarah-Grace Williams, will be shown in its entirety as it was delivered live on stage. This performance was a highlight in TMO’s long and acclaimed history featuring a unique world premiere of Celestial Emu, written by Australian composer Keyna Wilkins in collaboration with leading indigenous didjeridu player Gumaroy Newman.

After the show, participate in a Q&A with Keyna Wilkins and Gumaroy Newman, hosted by The Metropolitan Orchestra’s Artistic Director & Chief Conductor, Sarah-Grace Williams.

The event starts with Mozart’s iconic Symphony 40 which is an epic musical creation as dramatic as any tale ever told, full of elegance and refinement, with opening bars that have mesmerised music-listeners for centuries in one of Mozart’s most famous and recognizable works.

Following this dazzling concert opener, a pioneering collaboration between Wilkins, Newman and The Metropolitan Orchestra with the World Premiere performance of Celestial Emu (“Dhinawan”).

Wrapping up the unique concert experience is Prokofiev’s incredible Symphony no 1, Classical. Concise and playful, Prokofiev wittily juxtaposes his own daring musical language with typical melodic turns and gestures from Mozart’s time in what is one of the composers most famous works to deliver a thrilling climax to this outstanding performance.
