We couldn’t be more grateful and excited for our returning conductor Mark Stamper to lead us into the historic reopening of Te Matapihi Ki Te Ao Nui | Central Library.

Very cool to have so many Wellington choirs singing in one place simultaneously – like a mini SingFest! Here's a line-up of most of the directors: Jadrah (Signature Choir), Brent (Orpheus Choir Wellington and Music Director for the event), Philip (Orpheus 2.0) Rowan (Wellington Youth Choir), Maaike (Nota Bene), Virginie (Supertonic), Mark (FilCoro - Wellington Filipino Choir), Michael (The Glamaphones) - missing are Jo and Rosemary from Wellington Young Voices

What a fabulous day at the reopening of Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui! 🎶 It was such a privilege for our choir to join hundreds of voices to welcome the Wellington community back to this incredible space. Singing together in the heart of our beautiful city was a first for us and an experience we’ll never forget. So grateful to have played a part in this new chapter!"
