Theoctogenarian is heading Down Under for the first time.

Christoph von Dohnányi, one of the most acclaimed conductors of recent years, is set to hit the Sydney Opera House in 2016. This will mark the first time the German maestro has played a show in our fair land, making it a very significant proposition indeed.

Dohnányi’s Sydney shows will be full of the late Romantic Germanic tunes which he has become so acclaimed for conducting. So, if you like your compositions to come florid and dripping with emotion, then get ready to experience a veritable master doing what he does best.
