Great Barrier Reef Orchestra's Performances
Great Barrier Reef Orchestra
Currently celebrating its 25th anniversary, Great Barrier Reef Orchestra (GBRO) holds a special place as Townsville-Gurambilbarra's community orchestra. It brings together talented musicians from North Queensland to perform orchestral music in traditional and community-based settings. Conductors, soloists, and musicians from across Australia and overseas have collaborated with GBRO, making significant contributions to its development. In 2019, Theodore Kuchar, AFCM's founding Artistic Director, returned to Townsville to conduct a special program for the orchestra, subsequently accepting the position as its Artistic Director. The orchestra's commitment to community engagement ensures its continued success in bringing beautiful music to Townsville-Gurambilbarra.
