Dunedin Symphony Orchestra Music Education Tour

At the end of last term we were lucky to have Jen Cattermole and Sandra Crawshaw from the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra music education tour come and visit us.

The tour involved a talk and workshop around one of the pieces the DSO is performing in August, called 'From the Southern Marches' by local composer Anthony Ritchie. Because the piece is about the history of Otago right from first contact between Maori and Pakeha, it uses Maori musical instruments (taonga puoro). 

They brought with them taonga puoro, for the students to listen to, learn about, and play. They also spoke to us about how the piece links to the history of the Otago region.
