Win a double pass to Manukau Symphony Orchestra's The Romantic

To complete the Manukau Symphony Orchestra’s 2016 concerts’ season, Conductor Uwe Grodd has chosen to showcase two leading composers of the Romantic period – Wagner and Bruckner.
Mezzo-Soprano Rhonda Browne is returning from London to join the MSO in performing Wagner’s Wesendonck Lieder Song Cycle.
Wagner dedicated these five love songs to the poet Mathilde Wesendonck on whose country estate Wagner was living at the time. And it was rumoured that the two were romantically involved.
Also on offer is the Overture, from Wagner’s opera Tannhauser. This features some of the most memorable musical moments from the opera – a tale of love, lust and redemption.
Finally, the orchestra will perform Bruckner’s Symphony No 4, given the title The Romantic by Bruckner himself.
It is one of his most popular works, harking back to a Wagnerian world of medieval castles, hunting in the woods and the chivalrous deeds of knights in armour.
The beauty and passion of this music will make for a memorable concert so do join the MSO for an evening of romance.
Manukau Symphony Orchestra, The Romantic - Saturday, November 26, 7.30pm, Vodafone Events Centre, 770 Great South Road, Manukau.
