Waikanae & Auckland concert changes

...The five played with enormous energy, consummate delicacy, with an intuitive collaboration and infectious passion that captured both the quintet’s fire and its tragic beauty. It brought a tear to the eye....

21 September 2021 - Our concert for the Waikanae Chamber Music Society scheduled for 26 September is being moved to another date (probably Sunday 17 October) and venue (still to be confirmed) in order to allow another of their groups to use our original date. We'll post up the new concert details here as soon as they're confirmed.

Our own concert in St Matthew's-in-the-City in Auckland, originally scheduled for Sunday 7 November, has had to be postponed. Once we have a new date we will include details here on our website.

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.
