LOFT 2: GLOW
Zhou Long (China/USA): Spirit of Chimes
Gareth Farr (NZ): Forbidden Colours
Gao Ping (China/NZ): New Commission with guzheng (featuring international guzheng player Xia Jing)
Rachmaninov (RUS): Trio Elegiaque No 2 in d minor, Opus 9
The second concert in the NZTrio LOFT Series, GLOW is lustrous in its exoticism and vibrancy. Zhou Long’s Spirit of chimes conjures the translucent sounds of ancient Chinese instruments, while Gareth Farr’s Forbidden Colours shimmers and soars. Gao Ping’s new commission for NZTrio, in which the trio will be joined by international expert guzheng player Xia Jing, inspires the notion of sending thoughts and wishes into the sky, and Rachmaninov’s Trio Elegiaque No. 2 in d minor, Opus 9 in all its fervour and fullness, is rich in bold hues.
NZTrio will perform GLOW on two nights: Sunday 25 September 5pm, and Tuesday 27 September 6:30pm
