Harmony Waikato Spectacular - Saturday 6th September
The Gallagher Academy of Performing Arts will host a feast of four-part harmony from the Waikato's best barbershop choruses and quartets. Mighty River Harmony is New Zealand's top men's chorus with strong vocals and powerful bass section. Manu Mātātahi is one of this country's leading mixed youth choruses with impressive, tight harmonies. The Waikato Rivertones women's chorus has won international praise for its spectacular performances. Quartets include gold medal winners The Usual Suspects along with Centreplace and Four Square.
Also on the programme (pictured below) are champion high school choruses - Heart Attack from Sacred Heart Girls' College, Espresso from Waikato Diocesan School for Girls, and Uptown Girls from Hamilton Girls High School, the top three Young Singers In Harmony choruses from our regional competition. And, if that isn't enough, the top two quartets, Dolcelatte and Tetris.
Come along and be impressed by truly high quality vocal musicianship with a distinctive Waikato flair – 7pm, Saturday 6th September at the Gallagher Academy of Performing Arts, University of Waikato. Tickets $35/$30 available from the Academy, and www.eventfinda.co.nz...
