  • Queensland Symphony Orchestra surprises a curious and enthusiastic crowd with a guerrilla-style performance of Ravel's Bolero in Brisbane's South Bank. The Orchestra relocated to the city's cultural hub in December of 2012 and performed the pop-up performance to celebrate their move into a new state of the art studio.
    The Orchestra's conductor was Tecwyn Evans. The film was co-produced with ABC Brisbane.
    Queensland Symphony Orchestra is renowned for its high quality, breath-taking performances of both classical and modern compositions that engage audiences of all musical tastes, interests and ages. You can find out more about the Orchestra's current season at qso.com.au

    This is so beautiful to listen to. There is something about this tune, that always leaves goose bumps all over my arms. Wish I'd been there at Sth Bank to witness this, but at least I can watch it on here. Qld Symphony Orchestra, you rock!

      @@AussieBrit Yes Nicola, the drummer boy and the old cars, were superfluous to the performance. However I am sure that the little drummer boy will remember playing with QSO in Southbank forever. It could be a defining moment in his life for him? The old cars were just “A thing of beauty”. This pandemic has turned everything upside down and I am pleased that we have these performances on RUclips to enjoy still.

      Hi Colin and Sue,
      Have been listening to Blue Tango duo at the Merimbula jazz festival last week end.
      They reminded me of you guys playing.
      Sue, do you still have it in for singers when they close their eyes as they sing?
      If so, then you would have been throwing a lot of Cheezels and Twisties at some of the female jazz singers over the weekend.
      I now realise that the most enjoyable groups for me to listen to these days are the big swing jazz bands from the secondary schools. They have the talent, time to practice and the motivation to put on some incredible performances.
      Cheers, Bill
