Join Kākahu Coughlan and an ensemble of gifted young artists as they weave together a powerful evening of song and music, celebrating the beauty of voice and talent.

Inspired by the whakataukī ‘Me he korokoro tūī’—likening a beautiful singing voice to the throat of a tūī—this inspiring evening celebrates the extraordinary talents of young singers and instrumentalists. Led by Kākahu Coughlan, a student of opera, and her special guests, the concert showcases opera and classical works, raising funds to support future music development.

The evening’s repertoire offers a rich blend of musical moments, weaving the haunting beauty of vocal arias with the delicate tones of harp and cello. From expressive operatic pieces to reflective instrumental interludes, each performance invites audiences on a journey through a range of musical expressions.

This special evening is a fundraising event to support the continued musical development of Kākahu Coughlan, a dedicated student of opera, joined by her friends and guest performers. It highlights the importance of nurturing rangatahi in their creative pursuits, ensuring they have the opportunities and support to grow as artists and future leaders in the performing arts. By attending, you’re not only enjoying a wonderful evening of music but also showing your aroha and tautoko, helping to make a lasting difference.
