Anatolia - Aotearoa, A Cross Cultural Classical Guitar Concert at Alberton
Mt Albert's local guitar maestro and nationally acclaimed composer Bruce Paine will be playing at Alberton this weekend! In a serene Sunday afternoon concert with Turkish classical guitarist Barkin Sertkaya the two musicians will play music from their homelands.
They will also debut a new piece composed by Paine, commemorating the victims and heroes of Christchurch mosque shootings. The piece starts with tragedy and sadness, transforming gently into a sense of hope and an uplifting of the heart, infusing Middle Eastern harmonies and rhythms with Western. This will certainly be something special and a highlight of the peformance.
Tickets include entry to explore the house and refreshments before the show.
Sunday 15 September, 4pm. Tickets $30. To book contact concert919@brucepaine.co.nz A limited number of tickets are still available!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
