ASQ International Music Academy 2019 starts 29 July

...I couldn’t really hope to hear a more engaging, more deeply touching, and more understanding reading of this incredible music. Very great honour to the Aroha Quartet and to Andrew Joyce for giving us such a memorable experience....

13 July 2019 - We're really excited that our fifth ASQ International Music Academy is coming up soon in Wellington. Forty-two string players and pianists from China, Hong Kong, Australia and around Aotearoa will converge on St Andrew's on The Terrace for six days of chamber music, string ensemble, masterclasses, concerts and social activities. We always have such a blast at the Academy.

See our concerts listings for information about the three Academy concerts.
