Between the Lines: With NZ School of Music - Te Kōkī

This event will take place in Ngā Pou Ruahine on Level 2 of Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui, Wellington Central Library. The theme of our September musical book club will be announced soon! This months club will be curated and performed by students of NZ School of Music - Te Kōkī with guidance from the New Zealand String Quartet musicians. Between the Lines is a monthly early-evening chamber music series and book club that brings music and literature into conversation. Presented in the beautiful setting of Ngā Pou Ruahine in Te Matapihi, the series invites audiences to listen, think, and talk. No prior knowledge of music or literature is required, just a curious mind. Taking place monthly from April to October on the final Thursday of each month, Between the Lines has been co-created by New Zealand String Quartet, Orchestra Wellington, and New Zealand School of Music. Each month these organisations will take turns presenting a talented group of musicians to perform music and host discussion on a different literary theme. From devil’s bargains to language games, the obsessive tortured artist to the intimate private lives of writers and composers, this book club will delve deep into themes that span across artforms. Each session will feature carefully selected music and a reading list highlighting the theme of the month. So, arrive solo or bring your book club to Te Matapihi for a new kind of conversation.
