NZSO at Te Papa
Celebrate the holiday season by singing along with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.
Overview
Celebrate the holiday season at Te Papa this weekend by singing along with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. The free event in the Wellington Foyer will kick off from 11am with the orchestra kicking out some of classical music's most well-known melodies. Conducted by Hamish McKeich, and featuring vocalists Barbara Graham and Wade Kernot, let the orchestra take you on a journey with great music from Mozart, Verdi, Bernstein, and more.
In Te Papa's Te Marae from 1–2pm, a pop-up carol-singing workshop will let you see what it's like to sing with the orchestra. Learn the tunes in the Christmas Carols singing workshop and then join the orchestra at 3pm for a proper sing-along. Downloadable vocal scores will be available online, and provided at the workshop.
For those who would rather spectate than get involved, the concert with the NZSO and new carol choir will be on show back in the Wellington Foyer from 3–4pm.
