Dulcis Tibia (recorder quartet) Repeat Performance

Roger from Waikanae

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
