The Sidney Myer Free Orchestral Concerts in the Music Bowl are one of the
highlights of the Melbourne Summer. The businessman and philanthropist
Sidney Myer left a trust to
benefit the people of Melbourne and Australia. Not only did this trust make
possible the building of the public Music Bowl, it continues to continues to
contribute to the quality of life of Melburnians through works and events such
as the annual free concerts.
Gates open at 4pm and the concert starts at 7pm. White Hat recommends you get
there early because, if the weather is fine it can fill quite quickly. This is
the ideal place to have a champagne picnic with friend under the stars while
listening to classical music. You are allowed to bring reasonable amounts of
food and alcohol but no breakable glasses, sharp objects, or seating which
obstruct the view of others. Before you decide to turn it into a fully-fledged
camping expedition we suggest you check the
conditions of
entry.

The Imperial Russian Ballet presents The Nutcracker
|
|
Following their sell-out 2009 performance of Swan Lake, the Imperial Russian
Ballet Company return to perform the ageless tale of bravery & dreams that is
The Nutcracker. The Nutcracker is famous for
Tchaikovsky's music. The
genius of Tchaikovsky created one of the most recognisable & enduring music
scores ever written.
The illustrious cast of the Imperial Russian Ballet Company enjoy performing
The Nutcracker more than any other ballet from their extensive repertoire,
especially when they are joined by children from local ballet schools in the
cities that they perform in around the world. The Imperial Russian Ballet
Company was formed in 1994 by the Bolshoi Theatre soloist, Gediminas Taranda.
