Bennelong is dialing up its dining soundtrack with a new series of extraordinary music experiences called Bennelong Presents.

Trade up your stiff theatre seats for a spot in Peter Gilmore’s stunning glass-enclosed dining room, where you can take in both dinner and a show at the same time.

The unique music program will include a range of performances, from jazz trios and classical groups to a one-woman opera, performed on stage within the award-winning Bennelong restaurant.

Bennelong Presents will offer a varied program, with a new musical performance every Wednesday fortnight, as well as a relaxed jazz session every Sunday afternoon.

In keeping with the Sydney Opera House’s tradition of fine music, the line-up will include some of the country’s best performers and groups, including the Phillip Johnston Trio, Linda May Han Oh, Piers Lane, as well as the Australian World Orchestra.

Mark your calendar for Wednesday, July 21 when acclaimed mezzo-soprano Deborah Humble will star as Julia Child in an operatic version of the classic television show, in which Julia demonstrates how to bake a chocolate cake.

Or, swing by on Sunday afternoons for a laidback jazz session, with live music running until 4:30pm.

Guests will need to purchase a performance ticket, with the option of a three-course menu or bar snacks menu, depending on where you are seated in Bennelong.
