Unspoken Devotion

Saturday 12 September, 7pm

Cambridge Town Hall, New Zealand

At the heart of this program is a story of deep connection, admiration, and unspoken devotion. Music by Clara and Robert Schumann and Johannes Brahms reveals an intimate world of shared inspiration and emotional complexity, framed by the brilliance of Bach’s harpsichord concerto and a striking new work by New Zealand composer Ben Hoadley. Anchored by Schumann’s exhilarating Piano Quintet, this is a concert of passion, tenderness, and enduring artistic bonds.
