...Did I find any cause for complaint? Yes, actually, I did – they didn’t encore the Brahms. But isn’t that the sign of an exceptional recital, that you send your audience away wishing they could have heard it all again?...
(Paul Serotsky, Seen and Heard International)

Aroha Quartet with Rachel Vernon (clarinet) in Oamaru

In this concert in support of St John's we feature the clear, pure sound of the clarinet. Rachel Vernon, NZSO Principal Bass Clarinet, joins us for two of the best-loved works in the chamber music repertoire: the gorgeous clarinet quintets by Mozart and Brahms. The middle work in this programme is a beautiful arrangement for clarinet and string quartet of Astor Piazzolla's 'Oblivion'. Tickets $30 Adults, $25 Seniors, $5 Children from St John's Oamaru store, 48 Thames St.
