Aroha Quartet to play in CMNZ 2014 series

...The [Dvorak] was a well-chosen conclusion, and the ensemble brought the best of their talent and leadership to the fore in their rousing finish to the programme, earning them very enthusiastic applause and lots of smiling faces....

Next concerts

Tuesday, September 9 2025, 7:30pm - 9:30pm, St Andrew's in the City, Palmerston North

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 $35 General Admission, $25 Concessions, $10 Students from Eventfinda (transaction fees apply).
