This May, genre-bending US artist Beck is returning to Australia for three unforgettable performances with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Taking place at the Sydney Opera House, the shows will dive into Beck's three-decade-spanning catalogue, reimagining some of his most beloved songs through sweeping orchestral arrangements.
From the multi-platinum 1996 album, Odelay, to the Grammy Album of the Year winner Morning Phase, Beck will take audiences on a journey through his work — all reimagined with a live orchestra. The performances will be arranged and conducted by Australian composer and conductor Nicholas Buc, who will lead the orchestra through new interpretations designed specifically for the concert hall setting. The result promises to be something different from a typical Beck show. Think lush strings, cinematic swells and orchestral textures layered beneath the artist's unmistakable vocals and lyricism.
Alongside orchestral versions of fan favourites, audiences can also expect a few surprises. These concerts will reportedly feature rare covers and unexpected moments woven into the setlist.
The limited run of performances will take place across three nights: Thursday, May 7, Friday, May 8 and Saturday, May 9, offering fans a rare chance to hear Beck's expansive catalogue in a completely new light. If you've ever wanted to hear songs like Loser, Where It's At or Devils Haircut backed by a full orchestra inside one of the world's most iconic concert halls, this is your moment. Tickets are on sale now, so be sure not to miss out on this unforgettable concert experience.
