In Collaboration with New Zealand's At The World's Edge Festival, join us at the studio of photographer Peter Lueders as we listen to original works for String Quartet inspired by NZ's evocative and epic landscape!

Presenting an all-star cast of some of today's most exciting artists —Benjamin Baker (violin), Alexi Kenney (violin), Melissa Reardon (viola) and Julia Yang (cello)— the evening will feature new music composed by native New Zealanders Salina Fisher and Gareth Farr, paired with select movements from the String Quartets of Felix Mendelssohn.

We hope you'll join us for this unique collaboration that's sure to inspire and delight!

*Drinks and hors d'oeuvres will be served | BYOB welcome as well.
