Eivind Conducts Mahler's Titan
Louder than thunder and delicate as birdsong, Titan hits from all directions.
Wednesday 18 Mar 2026
7:30pm
Federation Concert Hall
Nipaluna / Hobart
Overview
Chief Conductor and Artistic Director Eivind Aadland is joined by superstar French pianist Cédric Tiberghien as well as musicians from the Australian National Academy of Music.
Tiberghien will use only one hand in a dazzling performance of Ravel’s dark and jazzy Concerto for the Left Hand in D, written for a pianist wounded in war.
The night begins with Ravel’s serene Pavane pour une infante défunte and ends with Mahler’s monumental Symphony No 1 – the ‘Titan’.

First concert?
We love welcoming new people to our concerts! Here we answer some common questions about what to expect.
Some people like to be right up the front where they can see the perspiration on musicians’ foreheads. Others enjoy being up the back, with an elevated view of the entire orchestra.
While all seats allow for a great concert experience, you can choose to pay extra for the most popular seats in the house. These tend to be closer to the stage while allowing great views of the orchestra and soloists, who almost always perform on the lefthand side of the stage (when viewed from the audience).
We recommend arriving 30 minutes before the concert and allowing time for any traffic or parking issues (and to take advantage of our on-site bar).
If you’re running late, don’t panic. Our friendly staff will be there to usher you to your seat at the earliest appropriate moment.
You’re welcome to dress up to the nines, but we don’t expect you to. There’s no dress code. Jeans are as appropriate as tuxedos, and sneakers are as accepted as heels.
If you choose to have your ticket emailed to you, you do not have to print it. Your email ticket will have a QR code that our ushers can scan on the night. We suggest ‘flagging’ the email in your inbox so you can easily find it on the night.
Simply call, visit or email the Box Office and we’ll either re-send your tickets or arrange for them to be collected on the night.
The TSO Box Office is open 10am – 4pm Monday to Friday and you can email boxoffice@tso.com.au or call us on 1800 001 190.
You are very welcome to pass your tickets on to friends or family to use.
If you are unable to attend a concert, you may like to return your tickets to the TSO as a charitable donation. Please email boxoffice@tso.com.au or call us on 1800 001 190 (10am – 4pm Monday to Friday).
