Bennett & Park: Violin & Viola Duo
Lauren Bennett is a New Zealand violinist in the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra. A recent graduate from Yale University, Lauren has performed as soloist, chamber and orchestral musician in New Zealand, China, Europe and America. She is very fortunate to be playing on a 1728 Testore violin, on generous loan through the Hill Family Foundation for Art and Music.
Recently appointed as the Associate Principal Violist of the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, Korean-New Zealander Julie Park has been recognised as one of the most promising violists to emerge internationally. An artist with the Talent Unlimited Foundation, she recently graduated with an Artist Diploma from the Royal Academy of Music as a Bicentenary Scholar, and recorded her debut solo album with Linn Records.

City of Sails: Barbershop Chorus
This talented group of a-cappella singers have been honing their musical craft within City of Sails for over 40 years. Barbershop harmony is a distinctly American art form, characterised by closely-voiced consonant four-part chords. Two very accomplished quartets from the City of Sails main Chorus will showcase this sound. "Block of Flats" recently made the top 10 in the national Barbershop Harmony NZ contest. "The Match" a young mixed quartet, recently won a medal fat the national barbershop quartet competitions.

Together, these superb musicians will offer an evening of clarinet, flute, and piano trio music! Selections will include favourites from the French wind trio repertoire as well as select duos.
