The NZCS consists of prominent concerto soloists with national and international careers and extensive chamber music experience. The core group is the piano trio combining the talents of Katherine Austin (piano), Lara Hall (violin), and James Tennant (cello). They have welcomed many other renowned New Zealand musicians and composers under the New Zealand Chamber Soloists’ banner.

The NZCS (trio) undertake a wide range of musical activities both in New Zealand and overseas. They maintain a busy concert performance schedule as soloists and as a trio with Chamber Music New Zealand.
A significant aspect of the work of the NZCS is the teaching of solo instrumental and chamber music pedagogy. The NZCS regularly present master classes focusing on solo and chamber music performance and technique. They have also produced recordings under the music label Atoll.
