Sunday 7 August - FAMILY CONCERT – CHILDREN FREE - Raukatauri fundraising concert.
A unique concert for children that aims to introduce them to a wide range of instruments and musical styles. It includes performances by a ukulele trio, a choir, guitar duo, wind quartet, viola sextet, piano piece for six hands and an ensemble piece for children and parents to join in with their own percussion instrument. The concert is a fundraiser for the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre. All of the music therapists at the Centre are skilled musicians in their own right and play several instruments, so the concert builds on that. Also performing are Centre supporters and volunteers.
It’s a one-hour show with a medley at the end so the audience can bring along an instrument or some sort of percussion to join in. It will be a fun way to engage children and adults with a wide range of abilities.
When: 2 to 3pm, Saturday, August 7, followed by afternoon tea and a chance to meet the musicians.
