Te Papa and the Royal New Zealand Air Force Band are delighted to present a free concert of New Zealand music as a part of the band’s annual ‘Masterworks’ concert series.

This year they will feature the epic storytelling of some of New Zealand’s most celebrated composers including Gareth Farr, Claire Cowan, David Farquhar, Jenny McLeod, Anthony Ritchie, and Keith Moss.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear these incredible master works presented with the military precision of this magnificent symphonic band!

Soundings Theatre has limited capacity so it is best to arrive on time (or early) to ensure you get a good seat. The concert will run for 60 minutes with no interlude. Please, get in touch if you have accessibility needs.
