Main Character Energy - QUMS Semester 2 Concert, 2026
About this event
The Queensland University Musical Society (QUMS) is excited to present our Semester 2, 2026 concert, Main Character Energy, a showcase of music featured in films.
This concert's repertoire features 13 pieces from a diverse range of musical styles, including You Will Be Found from multi-award-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen, Dies Irae and Lacrimosa from W.A. Mozart's Requiem, and an arrangement of Rainbow Connection from The Muppets by our own tenor section leader James Topping.
Our authentic delivery of intense Mozart moments in combination with melodic gospel and flowing, emotional melodies is bound to keep you on your toes throughout the entire performance (or give you whiplash, as our musical director Guillaume would say).
Conducted by Guillaume Lemay-Yates and Cloud Tan.
Accompanied by Grant Comin.
