RIVERS OF PASSION & PEACE
The title of this concert says it all. From our wide repertoire, we have selected songs about rivers and about peace. We open with a stirring Latin piece celebrating faith and music, by famous Welsh composer, Sir Karl Jenkins, and will conclude with an equally stirring Welsh anthem called Y Tangnefeddwyr. This is translated as The Peacemakers and is fitting this June, as precisely 100 years ago some of our WW1 soldiers were still awaiting repatriation to NZ. We have invited instrumentalists to join us and they provide a special feature as well as playing a delightful supporting obligato accompaniment for some favourite songs.
Along with a roaring fire in the lounge, we will provide a pleasurable afternoon of music for this, our 8th winter concert in the lovely historic church of St Barnabas. We will also offer afternoon tea in the lounge post-concert for a gold coin donation.

The choir is delighted to welcome as its special guests an invited opera quartet. All are NZ emerging artists and graduates in singing performance. Be prepared for a treat as they sing well-known quartets from operas Fidelio and Martha!
Our Concert is fundraising for A Girl Called Hope, a non–profit organisation working with young women who face life-controlling issues. We invite you to join us for this concert and help A Girl Called Hope to continue to provide a future full of hope and potential to every young woman .
