Join the New Zealand String Quartet for an evening of music, storytelling and dinner at Black Barn Bistro, on Sunday 8 November, as they finish their 2026 season.
Their 'Legend' programme features Beethoven, as well as scenes from the magical ballet 'Hansel and Gretel' from Aotearoa’s own Claire Cowan. And to finish, Benjamin Britten’s luminous third and final string quartet on the fiftieth anniversary of the composer’s death.
The quartet will introduce each piece and share the stories behind the music. Whether it's your first chamber music concert or your fortieth, you'll feel at home.
Peter Clark – Violin
Martin Riseley – Guest Violinist
Gillian Ansell – Viola
Martin Smith – Cello
$129 per head includes a two-course dinner and performance.
