From Tuesday 21 May – Monday 1 July 2024, the entry and exit of the Arts Centre Melbourne Car Park will be via Southbank Boulevard only. This may cause delays, so we recommend allowing an additional 30 minutes for arrival and exit. Plan to arrive early for performances, as late entry will not be allowed until a suitable break.
About this event
Dvorak’s Eighth Symphony is, simply, a joy.
The music has a natural, unforced quality that belies its complexity, and layers of truly original textures and ear-worm-worthy melodies shine with sparkling clarity.
Learn more about this marvellous work, with presenter Nicholas Bochner giving context and meaning to the music, as the MSO provides illuminating musical examples and excerpts.
