NZ Barok, a collective of baroque specialists from across New Zealand, will transport you to the 18th century with their authentic instruments and period playing styles. Renowned for their committed, passionate, and cohesive playing, NZ Barok has received acclaim for their performances as a “sound-fest par excellence”.
Equally at home with ethereal Renaissance polyphony and challenging works of the present day, The Tudor Consort, with Artistic Director Michael Stewart, is one of New Zealand’s premier chamber choirs. Since its inception forty years ago with founding Music Director Simon Ravens, The Tudor Consort has been dedicated to artistic excellence, authentic performance practice, and above all moving its audience through the art form of a cappella choral music. Prizewinners at two editions of the Tolosa International Choral Competition, the choir is regularly recorded and broadcast on Radio New Zealand Concert. Highlights of its history have included critically-acclaimed performances of Handel’s Messiah and JS Bach’s Christmas Oratorio and St Matthew Passion, as well as frequent collaborations with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra Wellington.
