Festivals like ours are a catalyst for change creating opportunities for artists to communicate with audiences and audiences to respond to artists’ work. Throughout the Festival you will find small threads that deal with our world today. We hope that the work in the Festival can make you think, laugh, scream a little and perhaps even cry. It has been a long journey for the opera The Bone Feeder to get from an idea to the stage. A number of years ago I saw Renee Liang’s play. I liked the surreal nature of it and thought it would make an interesting opera with its story in different worlds. I approached Renee, and was delighted she agreed to consider writing the libretto, which is an enormous step for a playwright. -

MUSIC CHANGES LIVES turnupthemusic.co.nz THANK YOU TO OUR DONORS, SPONSORS AND SUPPORTERS Turn Up the Music received its charitable status in March of this year. The first meeting of the establishment group of trustees took place in November 2018. A lot has happened in a short space of time. This is due in no small part to the work of Jillian Jardine, who pulled together a group of people with a common vision and purpose to improve lives of people in our community through music, using the Lakes Community Music School as its cornerstone. Emma Wilson and Alison Price established the Lakes Community Music School five years ago to provide after-school music tuition to the young people of our community. Eliott Allemand, who is playing for us tonight, is an example of the Music School’s impact, and its potential impact in the years to come with more support. The Lakes Community Music School is now the Turn Up the Music School. The start of Term Two marks the launch an expanded range of services through the Music School. Young people now have the opportunity to join junior orchestras, concert bands, choirs, a small hands recorder group and attend band mentoring workshops. It also marks the start of Turn Up the Music’s outreach programme in local primary schools and first concert event. Yesterday, Benjamin Baker, Justine Cormack, Gillian Ansell, and Alexander Hersh performed in local primary schools; tonight, they perform for us as part of the launch of an exciting new initiative, Chamber Music at the World’s Edge. -
