Harmony Spectacular! Saturday 10th September
A fabulous concert featuring quality singing by some of New Zealand's best choruses and quartets! The Waikato Rivertones are this country's champion women's chorus and have also had considerable international success. Mighty River Harmony is one of the best men's choruses, and home to the highly entertaining quartet "The Usual Suspects".
We have been lucky to secure for the programme New Zealand's gold medal winning women's quartet, the amazing "Unlimited".
The four-part harmony style of these groups requires precise timing and tuning, and it has been years since we have been able to assemble such an impressive line-up in the Waikato. The concert is being held in Waikato University's Gallagher Academy of Performing Arts, a venue with superb acoustics.
Saturday 10th September, 7pm. Limited tickets available from chorus members and from Ticketek.

Changing the conversation around dementia
Reducing stigma starts with the words we use, and shifting the way we talk about dementia is a powerful step forward. This World Alzheimer’s Month, Ryman is highlighting the importance of reducing the discrimination caused by stigma surrounding people living with dementia.
Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.
