About the event
Presenting, our 2026 Season: Storytellers.
Behind every piece of music is a story and across our 2026 Season, we'll dive into them. Join us and Ariana Tikao at The Piano's Christopher's Classics series for an evening exploring a rich cross-section of compositional voices and celebrating the art of storytelling through music.
We’ll boldly showcase more compositional voices than ever before, beginning with classical masterworks that resonate through the centuries, through to modern-day Grammy-winners and the distinctive voices of Aotearoa. Storytellers reflects a rich cross-section of our society and celebrates the art of storytelling through music. Join us in concert in 2026 and let us tell you a story.
PROGRAMME TO INCLUDE:
Music by Fanny Mendelssohn, Benjamin Britten and collaborations with Ariana Tikao. Full programme to be announced.
The concert programme, crafted in our signature style, aims to engage audiences of all levels of familiarity with chamber music. Each piece of music is preceded by a lively and informative introduction delivered by the Quartet members themselves. These introductions seek to shed light on the stories behind the music, making it an enriching experience suitable for all audiences.
