Halifax/K’jipuktuk, NS – Symphony Nova Scotia is proud to present Murdoch Mysteries in Concert, a captivating and immersive concert experience celebrating the music of CBC’s hit series Murdoch Mysteries. The concerts will take place on Sept. 27 and 28, 2024 at 7:30 pm at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium in Halifax, NS.

This unique musical experience brings together the worlds of classical music and detective fiction with special star host Thomas Craig – famous for his role as Inspector Brackenreid – and original music by the show’s longtime composer, Emmy Award-nominated Robert Carli.

The event features a masterclass breakdown of the score with Carli himself followed by a screening of the episode “Murder in F Major” from Season 16 of the show, with a stunning musical performance of the episode’s soundtrack by Symphony Nova Scotia conducted by Lucas Waldin.

Ticket holders will also have an exclusive opportunity to attend a post-show Meet & Greet with Thomas Craig. This limited availability add-on experience is sold separately through Eventbrite.

Murdoch Mysteries in Concert has been a popular experience for fans of the hit CBC series in venues across Canada, but this will be the first time the program is being performed in Atlantic Canada.
