        Last Leaf, Wandering East  
        New Zealand String Quartet 

        The New Zealand String Quartet – Te Rōpū Tūrū o Aotearoa takes you on a journey through Nordic, Celtic and klezmer traditions in a programme that dances between joy, sorrow and nostalgia. 

        At its heart is the acclaimed album Last Leaf by the Danish String Quartet, reimagining some of Scandinavia’s oldest folk melodies. Adding a local voice, one of Aotearoa’s leading composers and accordionists Ross Harris brings vibrant new klezmer works into the mix, specially re-scored for NZSQ. 

        Fusing ancient and modern, this rich musical tapestry reveals the timeless power of folk music in Aotearoa today.
