Immemorial features emotionally powerful works taking inspiration from the past, from Alfred Schnittke to Arvo Pärt. Many of these works profoundly influenced this year’s Composer in Residence, Victoria Kelly. Friday 13 October, 8pm | WHAKAARI | $65
With music that encourages reflection and memorialises important moments, ideas and people, Immemorial explores the power of dreams from ancient Greece to the present day. The programme takes you on a journey that leaves you close to where the festival began, but this time, looking to infinity.
