EROICA

Helen Medlyn is one of the country's best-loved divas. She has starred in everything from cabaret to opera, and will shine in Mahler's expressive Rückert Lieder. After the interval, be awed and uplifted by Beethoven's Eroica ("Heroic") Symphony No.3. From the mighty opening chords to the final notes, this is indeed a masterwork. Conducted by MCSO Music Director Uwe Grodd.

Saturday 6 December: 7.30pm - 10pm
Sunday 7 December: 2.30pm - 5pm
