Opus

Mataatua & Beethoven Opera in Concert and Piano Concerto

Events

This May, Opus Orchestra presents a powerful evening of orchestral and vocal music, pairing a major New Zealand opera by Dame Gillian Karawe Whitehead with one of Beethoven’s most exhilarating works.

At the heart of the programme is The Journey of Mataatua Whare, a moving opera in concert telling the true story of the great wharenui taken overseas without consent and returned home in 2011.

Exploring history, identity, loss and return, this unforgettable performance features outstanding New Zealand soloists alongside the Waikato University Voice Programme Ensemble.

An evening of depth, drama and powerful storytelling you won’t want to miss
