Thank you to all who joined us for Ears Wide Open events!

From 2025, the Ears Wide Open series will merge with our Monday evening Quick Fix at Half Six concert series in Hamer Hall.

Quick Fix at Half Six programs will feature a 15-20 introduction of musical and historical insights by the featured conductor / guest presenter, before the Orchestra performs the full work.

These 6.30pm performances (approx. 75 minutes without interval) will take place over four evenings at Hamer Hall and feature local and international guests, as well as a larger-sized orchestra than we are able to fit on the Melbourne Recital Centre stage. Audiences will also be invited to a free post-concert conversation with the conductor / artist in the Hamer Hall foyer.
