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.

Mayor David Trewavas confirmed Mr Green’s reappointment following today’s council meeting.
“The role attracted a number of quality of applicants but with continuing growth in the district and a number of large projects expected over the next few years, we wanted long-term stability in the top job and continuity with the trajectory we are currently on,” Mr Trewavas said.
“Gareth has a number of skills that has served both the council and the district incredibly well since he been in the position, and we look forward to him continuing to lead the organisation as we move forward,” he said. “There are some exciting times ahead.”
Mr Green said he was honoured to have the confidence of Council to be reappointed as chief executive.
“Nothing has given me more pride than being able to make a positive contribution to the Taupō District over the last three years, and I am excited to be able to continue that for the next five,” he said.

First up - The amazing Dee Paranihi!
As a loved employee of the Graeme Dingle Foundation, Dee couldn’t pass up the amazing opportunity to explore Vietnam and help kids across Aotearoa at the same time. "We can all learn to believe what we have inside is greater than the things that stand in front of us, but we need to teach our kids this, we are not necessarily born thinking that way."

Pools operations supervisor Ryno Nienaber said the hydroslides at the complex were becoming increasingly popular and it was time for an upgrade as the tubes reached the end of their useful lives. Nearly 41,000 people used the hydroslides in 2018, with a total of about 475,000 slides taken.
“Although we’re sad to have to close the hydroslides to carry out this work, we will do our best to get them up and running again as quickly as possible,” Mr Nienaber said. “They should be a great drawcard to the already popular complex.”
The existing slides were scheduled to close at the end of March and work will begin April 1, weather permitting. The first stage is the securing of the site and demolition of old tubes and foundations. This will be followed with the installation of the new foundations and tubes in May and June. It was expected the hydroslides would reopen to the public in July.
