SUMMARY:Christchurch City Choir presents "Haydn & Webster"
DESCRIPTION:Christchurch City Choir presents “Haydn & Webster” on Saturday 19th September 2026\, 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. at Charles Luney Auditorium\, St Margaret’s College\, Winchester Street\, Christchurch \nPricing: $15.00 to $57.00 \nEARLY BIRD TICKETS on sale now until August 3rd. \nJoin us for a magnificent concert experience as we welcome esteemed guest conductor Richard Webster to the stage. This special performance unites the grandeur of Haydn’s spectacular Harmoniemesse—considered by many to be the greatest of his six masses—with a selection of Richard Webster’s own compelling sacred compositions. \nThe concert’s centrepiece is Franz Joseph Haydn’s last major work\, the Harmoniemesse or “Wind Band Mass” of 1802. The writing displays some of his most daring harmonies and dazzling surprises. The three leading musical forces of the “Classical” era — roughly 1750 to 1820 — were Haydn\, Mozart and Beethoven. Imagine the thrilling Viennese musical scene in 1791\, when all three were living and working in that city\, just prior to Mozart’s death. We are excited to be featuring musicians from the Christchurch Youth Orchestra. \nThe program’s first half features a variety of Richard Webster’s sacred choral music\, both accompanied and unaccompanied — wild and serene\, with everything in between — composed over the last three decades.  \nComposer\, organist\, and conductor\, Richard Webster is thrilled and honoured to be filling in for John Linker with the Christchurch City Choir at this concert. Having retired from Trinity Church\, Boston in 2022\, he now teaches at Yale University’s Institute of Sacred Music and directs the new Bach in the City concert series in Chicago. He is a passionate runner\, and has completed 49 marathons\, including 22 Boston Marathons. \nContact person: Charlotte Ensor \nEmail: info@citychoir.co.nz \nLink: https://www.citychoir.co.nz/haydnwebster.html

SUMMARY:Christchurch Symphony Orchestra presents "Lamb & Hayward Curator's Series: Gabrieli\, Lilburn\, Martinu"
DESCRIPTION:Lamb & Hayward Curator’s Series: Gabrieli\, Lilburn\, Martinů \nFriday 25 September 2026 \n7.00 p.m. to 9.00 p.m. \nThe Piano\, 156 Armagh Street\, Christchurch \nGabrieli – Sonata pian’ e forte \nLilburn – Sinfonia for Strings \nMartinů – Nonet No. 2 H.374 \n  \nMore than 400 years ago\, Gabrieli’s Sonata pian’ e forte sent brass voices ringing through vast Venetian cathedrals. It pioneered the dramatic use of dynamics (contrasting loud and soft passages – the pian’ and forte of the title) and sounds that call and answer across the space\, immersing listeners in a rich acoustic tapestry. It helped define the sound of the Venetian Renaissance – bold\, breathtaking\, and still captivating today. \nAotearoa composer Douglas Lilburn paints a deeply personal landscape in his Sinfonia for Strings\, drawing its images from the pioneer sheep-farming hill country of his youth. Lush textures and inward lyricism reflect the composer’s deep connection to the Aotearoa landscape. CSO Concertmaster Justine Cormack leads the strings in drawing out both the intimacy and strength at the heart of this treasured work. \nComposed in the final year of his life\, Martinů’s Nonet No. 2 is a rare musical gem uncovered especially to delight Ōtautahi audiences. Scored for nine distinct wind and string instruments\, it unfolds like a lively gathering where each voice shines solo yet blends beautifully into a joyful whole. Woven through the music are the spirited folk influences of Martinů’s Czech roots\, grounding this bright and playful work in the traditions that shaped him. \nWith thanks to CSO Library Supporters Dr Kelvin & Mrs Carolyn Lynn (Gabrieli\, Lilburn). \nhttps://www.eventfinda.co.nz/2026/cso-lamb-series-gabrieli-lilburn-martin/christchurch
