We can’t stop thinking about the beautiful acoustics of SoundCathedral in Wellington Cathedral of St Paul, curated and composed by the incredible Michael Norris ⛪🎵
With a packed out crowd, immersed in the intricate textures and timbres of The Tudor Consort, Stroma and Rangatuone Ensemble, this show was a memorable moment of the 2026 Festival ✨📯

Thanks to everyone who came to, and everyone who was involved in, SoundCathedral. It was a humbling experience to finally get all the moving parts working in synchrony, and see how it landed. I need a rest now, but hope it will get another outing one day!
I recently sat down with Bryan Crump on RNZ Concert to discuss my recent Rattle Records album ‘Rerenga’ as well as SoundCathedral in the Aotearoa NZ Festival of the Arts. LISTEN HERE:
