Passengers travelling through Brisbane Airport (BNE) may find themselves serenaded by members of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, BNE’s Artist-in-Residence.
BNE is the first airport in Australia to have an Artist-in-Residence program. Brisbane Airport has long been a champion of the arts across Queensland, as a major investor in projects and organisations from music and theatre to ballet, exhibitions and festivals, and has commissioned dozens of works for one of the biggest and most significant collections of public art in Australia valued at more than $10 million.
Queensland Symphony Orchestra is renowned for its performances of both classical and modern compositions that engage audiences of all musical tastes, interests and ages. As the largest performing arts company in Queensland and the State’s only professional symphony orchestra, QSO plays a significant role in the development of a world-class arts environment across the state.
During the residency the QSO will undertake six ‘pop-up’ performances in the international and domestic terminals.
Music: Felix Mendelssohn - Octet for Strings in E-flat major, op.20 - III. Scherzo - Allegro legierissimo
