Join us on a musical journey "Across the Pacific," as the Michigan Tech Concert Choir embarks on their concert tour to New Zealand! With a diverse program that traverses spirituals, folk songs, bluegrass, and unique arrangements of traditional Polynesian songs, this tour is more than just a concert series — it's a bridge over the continental and cultural divides. Each performance brings communities together, celebrating the universal language of music and shared human experience. Embracing the spirit of giving, entry to these memorable evenings is by Koha, with all proceeds benefiting Music Helps. Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of a moving experience where every note sung, and every cent given, contributes to the shared greater good!

Founded in 1980 at Michigan Technological University in Houghton, MI, USA, the Michigan Tech Concert Choir is currently directed by Dr. Jared Anderson, whose leadership gracefully guides the choir as they bring to life the classics alongside the contemporary and draw in audiences through their love and passion for music. The Concert Choir thrives on its rich performance history grounded in creating cultural connections through music – a specific focus on each of their extensive international tours.

HORIZONS

​

Voices New Zealand’s latest concert programme takes audiences on a journey, a quest for a new homeland. This quest is real for millions of people every day, every week, every year; the need to leave a home, a country, their memories behind.

​

This concert will tell stories through music and poetry, music from the East, the oceans and the mountains, music from our world. Following our guide – actor Nathaniel Lees – the sounds of the drums and the songs of the seekers of a new home singing of horizons and hope, audiences will meander with the artists throughout the space encountering different worlds and cultures. Not everything will go well, but there is always hope.

​

In this immersive concert setting audiences are invited to promenade throughout the performances, as if on a bustling marketplace (or pick a resting spot on some of the chairs provided).

​

Featuring the world-premiere of Huwiyati Muhajer (Citizens of Horizons) by Palestinian Jordanian artist and composer Shireen Abu-Khader, alongside works by Ériks Ešenvalds, Bob Chilcott, Antonín Dvořák and Aotearoa composers Rosa Elliott and Takerei Komene, Horizons is a concert journey you will not want to miss.
