An exhilarating and inspiring experience. Taking its cue from Stanley Kubrick's magisterial 1968 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra launches into a programme of orchestral greats and modern masterpieces of beauty and vibrancy.
“[James Judd’s] performance is very grand, intense, at times genuinely ecstatic”

An exhilarating and inspiring concert experience. In this special Festival concert, NZSO’s Music Director Emeritus James Judd unleashes his creative energy on a selection of work that restores the true meaning of the word awesome.
Taking its cue from Stanley Kubrick’s magisterial 1968 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, the Symphony Orchestra launches into a programme of orchestral greats and modern masterpieces of beauty and vibrancy.
The virtuosic vocal ensemble, V8, joins the orchestra to bring the concert to a stunning finale. Layered with V8’s superbly-crafted vocal pyrotechnics, the Orchestra will take audiences on a musical joyride through three masterpieces featured in the soundtrack of 2001 and Berio’s Sinfonia, the musician’s tribute to Samuel Beckett and other great literary masters.
