Explore the secrets of the universe with Professor Brian Cox and Daniel Harding in this special event combining science with orchestra.

Symphonic Horizons is set to be a spectacular showcase of science and music combining ground-breaking ideas with celebrated orchestral music performed by the Britten Sinfonia.

Bringing together extraordinary imagery and some of the greatest orchestral music ever written, Professor Cox examines astonishing cosmic ideas and creates the links between cosmology and music by Mahler, Strauss and Sibelius. Featuring the Britten Sinfonia conducted by Daniel Harding, this show will remind us of what it means to be human, and what it means to live a small finite life in a spectacular infinite Universe.
