...…in moments of repose their tone is soft and mellow; in full flood it is mellow and rich; and when filled with ferocity it is rich and loud (and of course ferocious!)....

Dunedin concert on 14 September cancelled
Monday, August 30, 2021 - 4:11pm

30 August 2021 - With the uncertainty around the timing of changes to Covid-19 alert levels we've made the decision to cancel our concert that we were to perform in Hanover Hall, Dunedin on Tuesday 14 September. We're really disappointed not to be able to play in Dunedin this year. However, we'll be looking at a date to schedule our clarinet quintet programme for performance in Dunedin in 2022.

Next concerts

Sunday, September 21 2025, 2:30pm - 4:30pm, Waikanae Memorial Hall

For this programme we are joined by four wonderful guest artists - Nick Walshe (clarinet), Justin Sun (bassoon), Alexander Hambleton (horn) and Oleksandr Gunchenko (double bass) - to present a programme enlivened by the varied timbres of wind instruments. Beginning with the Mozart String Quartet in B-flat K589 we move on to 'Serenata in vano' for Clarinet, Bassoon, Horn, Cello & Double Bass by Danish composer Carl Nielsen. This characterful work depicts a short and unsuccessful attempt at seduction. We finish with Schubert's mighty and virtuosic Octet, a work filled with jaunty dances, singable melodies and heart-rending moments. Tickets $40 Members, $50 Non Members, $10 Students.
