Experience the magnificent sound of one of the largest church pipe organ installations in the Southern Hemisphere with 13-year-old Kai Laird. This varied programme features works by Bach and Boëllmann, alongside traditional folk melodies and hymns. Kai will be joined by violinists Kenzie Laird (8) and Jordan Cheah (10), together with flautist Joyce Zhou (13), for what promises to be a memorable afternoon of music.
