Written by Igor Stravinsky, The Firebird is a suite of ballet music that tells the story of a prince who is aided by an enchanted bird.

In a treat for audiences, famed Australian pianist Simon Tedeschi starred with the QSO, under the baton of Umberto Clerici.

The concert was livestreamed to venues in Mackay, Mount Isa, Fraser Coast, Nambour, Toowoomba and the Maranoa as part of Queensland Symphony Orchestra’s commitment to provide access to music across the state.
