Vaughan Williams The Lark Ascending
Ross Harris Face (world premiere)
Elgar Variations on an Original Theme, ‘Enigma’

Enjoy two of the most adored pieces of English music, Elgar’s Enigma Variations and Williams The Lark Descending in a concert by the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra joined by VOICES NZ. Conductor is Anthony Hermus.

Between these two favourites is a new commission from Ross Harris. Face is inspired by the story of Sir Harold Dillies, the New Zealander who became the father of plastic surgery through his pioneering work treating the disfiguring facial injuries sustained by soldiers during the First World War. This multimedia work also includes visuals by Tim Gruchy, based on and original artwork by Barry Cleavin and features VOICES NZ.
