NZ Barok celebrating 20 years 2004-2024

Celebrate the magnificent milestone of NZ Barok's 20th anniversary with us! Join in the celebration as we present a selection of our favourite baroque pieces that showcase the brilliance and variety of baroque music. Immerse yourself in the enchanting sounds of Brescianello, Geminiani, Telemann, Avison, Rameau, and Vivaldi, as we weave a musical tapestry full of elegance, energy, and contrast by journeying from Italy, to England, France, and Germany. Soloists Jessica Shaw (recorder), Ben Hoadley (bassoon), and Greta Claringbould (soprano) bring their exceptional talents to make this celebration truly celebratory!

We would like to thank The Lion Foundation, Auckland Council Regional Arts and Culture, Dame Jenny Gibbs, Friends of NZ Barok, NZ Barok Advisory Board and Life Members for their support of the 20th Anniversary concerts.
