Symphonic Spectacular
Christchurch Symphony Orchestra
The masterful grace of one of New Zealand’s premier orchestras will take to the stage in October when the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra performs its celebration of classical symphonic works - Symphonic Spectacular.
The orchestra has created a stunning programme of popular classics featuring works by many of the great masters, to truly showcase the dynamic acoustics of Marlborough’s brilliant new theatre.
The orchestra has been performing for nearly 60 years and is the South Island’s leading professional music organisation.

Producer's Notes
There are four fully professional orchestras in New Zealand - the NZO and the three regional orchestras, the Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch Symphony Orchestras, which means that the residents of our three main centres - Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch, are very fortunate. They enjoy frequent concerts from our "national" orchestra - the NZSO - and even more frequent concerts from their own regional orchestras.
Watch them at work
