Dulcis Tibia (recorder quartet) Repeat Performance
Saturday 31 October 3:30pm
Mahara Gallery, Waikanae shopping centre
Our concert during level 2 lockdown had a full house so we are repeating it. The gallery is a smallish venue and has limited seating so come early! Entry is by donation.
Dulcis Tibia is a recorder quartet that plays a wide variety of recorders including copies of renaissance instruments - which sound a little different from modern instruments - and big instruments such as the plywood great bass and the monster (about 2m high) contrabass.
The programme ranges from renaissance (Italy, around 1500) to contemporary pieces and with arrangements of classical music.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.9% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.1% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
