Horizon - At the World's Edge Festival

Our final programme, Horizon, explores the human need to explore, to bridge divides, and to aspire for more. Works by Amy Beach, Claude Debussy and John Psathas pull from the beauty of nature, before one of the most innovative, ambitious and inventive pieces of all time concludes our festival in Queenstown.

  • Amy Beach Hermit Thrush at Morn, op.92 for solo piano
  • Claude Debussy Sonata for violin and piano
  • John Psathas Corybas for piano trio
  • Amy Beach Hermit Thrush at Eve, op.92 for solo piano
  • Georges Enescu String Octet

 

For the evening's free AWE+ event we are thrilled to welcome legendary local skier Jossi Wells for a conversation around how his movement on snow becomes a physical expression of his connection to nature.

In this open dialogue with AWE Artistic Director Benjamin Baker, they’ll explore the parallels between skiing and music, how Jossi’s dual pursuits shaped one another growing up, and how both art forms have helped him access the elusive flow state.

Presented between the two performances of Horizon, at 4:15pm.
