Overview

The Melbourne Recital Centre and Melbourne Symphony Orchestra are teaming up with acclaimed composers and musicians for the latest edition of the Metropolis New Music Festival. Now in its fifth year, the festival is set to run from May 9 to 21, and will feature solo shows, concerts and talks in a program all about life in the big city.

Anchoring the festival will be a trio of concerts performed by the MSO, with American conductor Robert Spano at the helm. The series will pay tribute to cities both real and imagined, with tickets available to each concert individually or as part of a three-part package.

Other events include free performances by the Australian Art Orchestra, singer-songwriter Jess Ribeiro and The Letter String Quartet. For the full Metropolis New Music Festival program, go here.
