  • The Central Otago Regional Choir & Regional Orchestra - Queenstown

The Central Otago Regional Choir, accompanied by the Central Otago Regional Orchestra, will host the FIRST New Zealand performance of FEEL THE SPIRIT, a cycle of seven greatly loved American spirituals, arranged by John Rutter. Singing in styles from Big Band and Blues to Calypso, the choir will be joined for this exciting performance by renowned soprano Heather Macdonald.

Accompanied by Suzanne Russell (piano), with Maria Affleck (solo violin), the choir will also perform the exquisite FIVE HEBREW LOVE SONGS, composed by Eric Whitacre and to compliment the jazz-flavoured settings of the spirituals, the concert will open with well - known popular standard songs, accompanied by Alison Frude (piano) and  Dunstan High School's choir  Dunstanza will also feature in the programme.

One notable characteristic of many of the Choir's concerts is the invitation for the audience to join in the singing. Be prepared! There will be an occasion to participate actively and "feel the spirit".
