YARRAGON STUDIO
 

Renowned classical music ensemble NZTrio He Taonga Wairere present their extraordinary programme Fantastique.

Described as a "national treasure" and "New Zealand's most indispensable ensemble" (William Dart, NZ Herald), NZTrio combines warm kiwi stage presence with musicians at the top of their craft.

​

Amalia Hall (violin), Somi Kim (piano) and Callum Hall (guest cello) explore a lavish tapestry of styles and emotions in Fantastique, a programme of contrasts. Turina's Circulo depicts a single day through dawn, midday and dusk. Chen Yi's Tibetan Tunes creates a fusion of traditional Tibetan melodies referencing Buddhist god Du Mu, before the premiere of Angelus, a new commission by one of Aotearoa’s most acclaimed composers, John Psathas. Finally, Franck's youthful Piano Trio No. 1 in F sharp minor is as charming and intimate as it is powerful and explosive.
