Concerts
It is with great pleasure that we announce our 2023 concert series
Jade @ Ferndale House
This elegant and historic home in Mt. Albert was built in the 1860s and is the perfect venue to showcase the Jade string quartet with its charming ambience and lovely acoustic.
In this series we will be exploring John Rimmer’s second string quartet, and premiering works by NZ composers Anthony Ritchie, and Louise Webster.
Our 2023 season also features treasured works by Mozart, Brahms, Beethoven, Ravel, and Saint-Saëns.
Please come and join us at Ferndale House! There will be door sales, but pre-booking by emailing jadestringqtet@gmail.com is recommended as we expect good houses and can’t guarantee it won’t sell out.
We are also proud to be starting another wonderful series in 2023
The Beauty of Sound
at the School of Philosophy.
This beautiful Neo-georgian brick Mansion built in the 1930's has a magnificant view and large salon perfect for the best of Classical and Romantic string quartets.
