Matakana to The Met
From Warkworth to Wigmore Hall, New Zealand star baritone Julien Van Mellaerts and South African pianist James Baillieu take you on a journey of the song from Schubert, Ravel and Vaughan Williams, to a world premiere setting of iconic NZ birds by Gareth Farr.
This journey through the world of art song and Lieder probes the human psyche with an intensity no other genre, not even opera, is permitted. Unhinged. Gruelling. Hallucinatory. Joyful. Beautiful. This ranks as the most searing experience any music lover can undergo.
Julien Van Mellaerts & James Baillieu: touring NZ 10-16 April

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
