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

Good morning! I am downsizing to a smaller vehicle and looking to sell my camping van. It's got a bed in the back and is kitted with all the camping essentials. If you or anyone you know is interested feel free to send me a message!  
It's a 1999 Honda Odyssey and drives great. Was previously owned by a Kiwi so hasn't traveled around as much as the other vans for sale - less than 200 000 kms mileage! Great for weekend adventures or for a longer trip!
(WOF valid until October 2019)

Price: $1,500

Through these tough times we have learned the true strength and resilience of our communities and have witnessed first hand the abundance of aroha in Aotearoa.

Now more than ever, the fern seems to best capture the spirit of our country. If we look to our Māori roots, we are reminded of the twist or pikorua which resembles two intertwined pikopiko ferns - a fern known for thriving in dark, damp areas of our woods. A reminder that difficult conditions can actually be an opportunity for tremendous growth.

The entanglement of the pikorua also has no beginning or end which is often used to represent an everlasting bond. Although we are all on our own path in life, in the end we always come back together - we are all connected through our interwoven lives.
