CLiK - The Ensemble | Tour

Committed to representing New Zealand in the arts, CLiK share a Kiwi musical upbringing, and trace their love of chamber music back to the NZCT Chamber Music Contest, with wins in 2001 (John Chen) and 2005 (Natalie Lin, Edward King). They each bring diverse experience and international acclaim to the Trio: John remains the youngest ever winner (at 18 years) of the prestigious Sydney International Piano Competition, Natalie’s prize wins include the Audience Prize at the 2013 Michael Hill International Violin Competition and in the same year Edward won a special Lutosławski prize at the Witold Lutosławski International Cello Competition. Their programmes are a showcase collection of solos and duos, crowned with Schubert’s first piano trio. This good natured and lyrical late Schubert work simultaneously mixes power and the intimacy of expression.
