It’s probably the biggest jazz concert you’ll ever see in Queenstown.
To mark its 10th anniversary, the Queenstown Jazz Orchestra’s putting on a celebration concert in the Queenstown Memorial Centre on August 7.
Along with its usual 16-piece ‘big band’ line-up, it’s inviting back past players and vocalists from as far afield as Waiheke Island and Stewart Island.
Orchestra secretary and sax player Sarah Lyttle an ex-New Zealand Youth Jazz Band member says after the full house they got in February for a concert with NZ’s foremost big band leader Rodger Fox, ‘‘the feeling from the community was exceptional’’.

Wall of Fame honors the 2021 and 2020 inductees
Ceremony to recognize both classes will be held during Homecoming.
Many people strive for greatness in their careers by offering incredible service, exceptional leadership, innovative ideas or reliable support. When these people retire, there are big shoes to fill.
Former Missouri State University faculty and staff members can be selected for the Wall of Fame to remember their legacies.
The honorees
The Board of Governors voted yesterday (May 13) to induct five more individuals. The 2021 inductees include Dr. Anson Elliott, Mike Jungers, Dr. James Moyer, Dr. Thomas Plymate and Mark Stillwell.
“These five people imprinted themselves on campus. For some, it was in their offices and departments. For others, it was through their contributions to committees and leadership positions,” said President Clif Smart. “Their legacies resonate loudly still.”
