ASO launches Classic Hour

Take time out to experience the brilliance of the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra (ASO) as you have never seen them before.

In ASO's new Express Concert Series, be uplifted with a short burst of music from the ASO in your lunch hour or after work.

Chief Conductor Arvo Volmer, inspired by the 200th anniversary year of Haydn, has built a program based on light, fun classical pieces and is keen to make classical music accessible for everyone, including the time poor!

Classic Hour begins with Haydn in Autumn - at 1.00pm and 6.00pm Wednesday 1 April at Elder Hall, University of Adelaide.

The first Classic Hour will see Sophie Rowell as soloist, sharing the stage once again with former Australian String Quartet colleague and newly appointed ASO Concertmaster Natsuko Yoshimoto.
