Warkworth Music anticipates better year
Warkworth Music will open its 2021 season with a concert by Trio Elan on April 17.
Warkworth Music is looking forward to a smoother season this year after Covid 19 disruptions forced the cancellation of five of its scheduled seven concerts last year.
Seven monthly concerts are scheduled again this year, starting in April with Trio Elan.
Warkworth Music president Lisa Outwin says last year was a challenging year for all, particularly performers and event organisers.
“Only the concerts by Stephen de Pledge and Vesa & Friends proceeded as planned,” Lisa says.
“Fortunately, we were able to arrange two replacement concerts at short notice, thanks to the NZ Trio and the New Zealand String Quartet. All 2020 concerts were outstanding and received very positive audience feedback.”
