Christmas Comes To Cathedral Square
22 December 2003
Free Lunchtime Concerts, December 22nd, 23rd and 24th , Cathedral Square.
Christmas
week has a charming start this year in Cathedral Square, when
the New Zealand Secondary School Students Chamber Choir
will sing a range of choral music from many periods including
medieval and modern,
with the occasional jazz and Samoan song adding variety and interest.
The
Chamber Choir have performed in Rotorua, Dunedin and Southland
and will add Christmas songs to their repertoire on Monday December
22nd, from
12.15pm to 1.15pm.
Tuesday 23rd brings a performance by the Christmas
Belles to Cathedral Square from 12noon to 12.30pm. Anna and Ashleigh
are both Middleton Grange
students, and they share a love of performing and music.
The Christmas
Belles are joined by Ahi Ka, a local three piece R’n’B
and Hip Hop band, featuring David Butterfield , Te Rau o-te-rangi
Winterburn and Shaun Taiaki.
Their personal philosophy is ‘Eternally striving to create a happier
world with music that is born from te whakaaro kotahi’, and Ahi Ka
promise to add cultural pride to our Christmas week, from 12.40pm
to 1.25pm.
Popular local a’cappella group The Canterbury Plainsman
perform on Wednesday December 24th, Christmas Eve Day. With 15
years experience singing
mellow 4 part harmonies, they present a wide variety of songs from
Broadway shows, Musical Theatre, and a sprinkling of Christmas
Music.
The Canterbury Plainsmen perform from 12.15pm to 1.15pm.
