2025 Concert Season

We have many exciting events planned for 2025, from the close intimacy of chamber music to the energy of a full orchestra in the Sydney Opera House, plus three Young Mannheim Symphonist Academies for youth musicians exploring historically informed performance style. And, in honour of Richard Gill’s extraordinary legacy, we continue to INSPIRE, EDUCATE and ENLIGHTEN, as we have done every day for over a decade. We welcome you to our concerts and music education programs presented throughout the year across Australia’s eastern seaboard.

MENDELSSOHN / BACH
ST MATTHEW PASSION

Hear Bach’s iconic St Matthew Passion through Romantic ears in a recreation of the concert that sparked the 19th-century Bach revival. The Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra, led from the violin by Rachael Beesley, partners with Sydney Philharmonia Choirs conducted by Elizabeth Scott in an illuminating performance of Mendelssohn’s 1841 version – Australia’s first-ever on rare historical instruments.
