The Runholder & a quintet from the NZSO present ‘Last Leaf’ The Runholder is excited to welcome a quintet of players from the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra to perform Last Leaf. On Sunday June 2nd, the quintet will perform in full this contemporary classical album curated by the Danish String Quartet, followed by a three-course culinary feast by The Runholder Head Chef, Tim Smith. This performance will transport you to Scandinavia with beautiful renditions of a variety of folk songs, all exquisitely set for a string quintet. The full 50 minute performance includes short tunes which are mysterious, ethereal and folky – drenched in a stunning Nordic sound world.
Last Leaf is a fascinating and successful attempt to translate Nordic folklore into the sound world of classical music. The quintet will include NZSO players Jessica Oddie and Christine Wang on violins, Alexander McFarlane on Viola, Ken Ichinose on cello and Damien Eckersley on double bass. Concert-goers will be welcomed with Te Kairanga wines in the Tasting Room upon arrival. The concert will then follow in the main dining room, it’s high cathedral-like Scandi architecture serving as the perfect backdrop for the delicate folk sounds of Last Leaf. Concert- goers will sip, listen and enjoy a shared platter entrée as they watch the performance, followed by a feast celebrating autumnal Wairarapa produce, paired with a selection of wines from Te Kairanga’s cellar. Dessert will follow, concluding the evening.
This very special performance of Last Leaf will perfectly complete a long weekend getaway in Martinborough, or serve as a great excuse for a beautiful evening of contemporary classical music and fine fare with friends.
