2024-02-28 12:15 - 13:00 | St Andrews Church, 30 The Terrace, Wellington, 6011, Wellington, The Terrace, 6011, New Zealand
The bass trombone is a relatively unknown solo instrument, often relegated to the back row of ensembles. This recital reveals what transpires when you pair a bass trombonist with an internationally celebrated concert pianist. What are the sonic possibilities of such a collaboration and why on earth would Jian Liu agree to perform with a brute from the back row?! The programme will take the listener on a journey from Schumann and Shostakovich to the end of the 20th century with two enthralling works (Sarcich and Schnyder) showcasing the virtuosity and artistry of NZSO’s Bass Trombonist, Shannon Pittaway and NZSM’s Senior Lecturer in Piano, Jian Liu.

Lunchtime Concert: Martin Griffiths (cello), Celia Griffiths (violin) and Kathryn Mosley (piano) – A Katherine Mansfield Anniversary Celebration
2024-03-06 12:15 - 13:00 | St Andrews Church, 30 The Terrace, Wellington, 6011, Wellington, The Terrace, 6011, New Zealand
Join us for this very special concert with Martin Griffiths (cello), Celia Griffiths (violin) and Kathryn Mosley (piano) – A Katherine Mansfield Anniversary Celebration. The concert features music by Arnold Trowell, a close friend of Katherine Mansfield, and includes his Sonata in F, Op. 30, for cello and piano. The cello, which Mansfield first learned in Wellington, was her favourite instrument.
With the one hundredth anniversary of Mansfield’s death last year, there has been a sustained interest in her contribution to literature, which includes several uniquely musical short stories. A cyclic, single-movement trio in “chapters” – Ancient Irish Folk Songs – is a musically analogous example of Mansfield’s writing style and concludes this programme.
