BOLLYWOOD GALA

Featuring ‘Giant of the Sitar’ Indian classical music star Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan

Conductor Andrew Mogrelia

Experience the world premiere of a QSO-commissioned Sitar Concerto by Shahid Parvez Khan. 

Hear movements from Ravi Shankar’s Symphony No.1, excerpts from film favourites including A.R. Rahman’s Slumdog Millionaire and more.

The international success of Bollywood movies has taken Indian culture to the world, and brought the music of its composers from the cinema into the concert hall.

A R Rahman’s moving music for Slum Dog Millionaire leads the charge, explicitly aiming to mix ancient Indian traditions with new musical styles, and in the process winning almost every movie-music award on the planet.

Bollywood is all about its songs, presented with dazzling colour and movement as the QSO brings Asia’s most vibrant musical culture to Brisbane’s City Hall.

Thursday 24 Sep 7.30pm at Brisbane City Hall

Ticket Prices – Adult $82.50 / Concesion $70 / Student $47 – A $6.20 fee applies per transaction
