Sunshine, gardens and song - tomorrow!
From the opera houses in Europe to the Hamilton Gardens Arts Festival, we are thrilled to announce that baritone James Ioelu will sing tomorrow (6.30pm) in 'Finding the Right Note' -
Covid may not have many silver linings, but this is definitely one of them! A former winner of the New Zealand Aria Competition and the New Zealand Young Performer of the Year, James is now based in the UK but has returned due to Covid. He trained at the Manhattan School of Music and attended the Merola Opera Program in San Francisco before joining the National Opera Studio in London. He has performed with many leading opera companies including the English National Opera, Glyndebourne Opera, Garsington Opera, Grimeborn Opera, and Birmingham Opera.
Get your tickets to hear James singing some of Janet Jennings, Composer's gorgeous music with rising soprano star Felicity Tomkins tomorrow, 6.30pm.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
