'Kotahitanga' features a dynamic range of guest speakers and artists including Australian music educator and author Tim Topham, NZCF Board Chair Pete Rainey MNZM, SOUNZ CEO and flutist Dr Hannah Darroch, NZSQ violist Gillian Ansell MNZM, and collaborative pianist Dr Sarah Watkins.

Enjoy a programme of masterclasses, seminars, and choral workshops, and a stunning chamber music recital.
