NZSM Refuses to Face the Music
- Salient
- Tucked away at the top of Kelburn Parade, Te Kōkī—the New Zealand School of Music (NZSM) may seem a bit cut off from the rest of the university. That was decidedly not the case on Thursday, 6 July, with over 100 musicians lending their voice or instrument to the ‘Save the NZSM’ protest concert in the Hub.

Interview with ARJUNA OAKES
- Orchestra Wellington
- Talk to us about your upcoming piece, Safe Way To Fall, performed next month with Orchestra Wellington “Safe Way To Fall” is a song John and I wrote at the end of October 2021, roughly a year and a half ago. John has a place in Waitārere on the coast, we had a few days there and wrote some songs together. The first time I’d met John was through being a recipient of the Arts Foundation Springboard award where he was my mentor, but this was the first time where we worked together in direct collaboration.
