15.01.2022 Music truly brings us together in ways that we cannot predict. I (GCCWO Publicity Officer) am currently lurking in Canberra. Last night in the celebration of Canberras Birthday, the Canberra Symphony Orchestra brought to life Rumours (from Gold Coast) The Australian Fleetwood Mac experience in the park. During the wonderful performance I found out that one of our orchestra members brother is in fact performing with the CSO that very moment. In what simply was to be a performance was a beautiful reminder of how powerful, far reaching and connecting music is. #music #powerful #CanberraSymphonyOrchestra #EnlightenCanberra #connection
