It was a very enjoyable evening with a varied programme of music that featured different combinations of the instruments. St Luke's Church was a beautiful, intimate venue with a great acoustic. After the concert there were drinks and nibbles, and a chance to speak to the performers.

The next concert in the series is on Sunday 28 July at 5pm at the Lewis Eady Showroom, 75 Great South Road, Remuera. The performers are pianists visiting from Italy who will perform music for two pianos.
