Welcome to Jade String Quartet’s 2021 recital series. Our four concert programmes this year focus on inspired new music from New Zealand composers – with world premières from David Hamilton, Kirsten Strom and Ben Hoadley. Each concert also includes many first and last string quartets from a range of famous composers – from Saint-Saëns to Haydn, Schubert to Verdi. We are delighted to be able to perform these works for you, live in the glorious Pah Homestead.
