Spring Strings | Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra at Bangor The Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra and Bangor Vineyard invite you to a very special spring evening of music, wine and Tasmanian food. Experience the TSO as you rarely can - just metres from the musicians, in the intimate surrounds of Bangor Vineyard Shed. Across the evening, a TSO string quartet will perform three intimate sets, with time between performances to enjoy a generous progression of food celebrating spring in Tasmania, including our very own Bangor lamb. Begin with Tasmanian oysters and canapés and grazing boards, followed by mains featuring Bangor lamb, before finishing the evening with something sweet. There are no distant seats and no formal concert hall. Instead, this is an opportunity to experience world-class musicianship up close, while sharing great Tasmanian food and wine in the relaxed atmosphere of Bangor.
