Andrew London Duo with Fiona Pears
Kapiti Playhouse, Paraparaumu, Kapiti Coast
THU 13 MAR 7:30 P.M. - 9:30 P.M.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to see New Zealand's premier jazz violinist sparring with Andrew London, master of the satirical ditty. Fiona's 25-year musical association with Andrew's group Hot Club Sandwich saw the group playing jazz festivals in Nelson, Tauranga, Wellington and Christchurch and several recorded albums. Fiona's subsequent commitments to World Tours with Hayley Westenra, recording dates with orchestras in Liverpool and Prague, and her own solo recording and playing career made collaboration sporadic, but she has found time to join Andrew and bassist partner Kirsten London on several whirlwind tours over recent years. This is a rare opportunity to see New Zealand's most electrifying violinist, accompanying Andrew London's insightful musical commentary on life's absurdities, in an up-tempo swing spectacular!
