At the heart of the programme are Brahms’ remarkable Piano Trios, composed during the early, mid, and late stages of his life. Each concert features one of the trios and as proud ambassadors of New Zealand music the NZTrio will be performing works from Gareth Farr and Claire Cowan.
NZTrio is renowned for its eclectic repertoire, outstanding talent, and warm stage presence. Bringing together three incredibly accomplished artists, every NZTrio performance powerfully reaffirms the importance and cathartic nature of a live musical experience.

"A couple of days ago I just spent some time watching a blackbird hovering around our grapevine and helping herself to the juicy grapes. I was fascinated at how adept she was at skinning them too! I got a that shot showed a skinless grape, which I thought she would swallow, but she dropped it like a hot potato and ate the skin instead."

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.
Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.
Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.
