Overview
To celebrate the founder and Director of Music of the Queensland Youth Orchestras (QYO), John Curro's 80th Birthday, QYO is putting on a spectacular show at QPAC's Concert Hall. On Saturday night, the QYO is showcasing their 150 member Alumni Orchestra who will perform Richard Strauss's masterpiece, the Alpine Symphony. The Alpine Symphony is a musical representation of a majestic mountain climb in the Bavarian Alps. The symphony follows as the adventurers ascend the mountain just after sunrise and musically depicts their journey through forests and alpine pastures.
