About the event

Child Policy: This performance is not suitable for children under six years old. Children aged 16 and under must be accompanied by a caregiver who attends the event with the child. Conductor --- Nodoka Okisawa Organ --- Nicholas Forbes Guillaume Connesson --- Cosmic Trilogy Saint-Saëns --- Symphony No.3 'Organ Symphony' The dazzling French composer Guillaume Connesson captures the universe in his Stephen Hawking-inspired work. In its NZ premiere, the three movements evoke the Big Bang, the appearance of the stars, and a supernova. On the title page of his Third Symphony, Saint-Saëns wrote the words 'with organ': its first appearance is a mood of quiet contemplation, but there's a big bang here, too, when the Auckland Town Hall's mighty instrument is unleashed -- an occasion not to be missed.
