Choirs at Chartwell
On Saturday 2nd August the Grads joined Waikato Diocesan and St Paul’s Collegiate School choirs for a fantastic afternoon of shared music making, finishing with a collaborative concert that culminated with all 70 singers joining together for a fan favourite, Shenandoah.
Echoes of Culture
Echoes of Culture was a collaborative recital alongside The Cloud Chamber Singers, The Cloud Children’s Choir, and the Hong Kong Children’s choir who were touring to New Zealand from Hong Kong. This concert combined both genres and singers from across continents, and filled the Auckland Town Hall with harmony in more ways than one.
Auckland Town Hall Organ Concert
The Graduate Choir NZ, conducted by Terence Maskell, was thrilled to be invited by the Town Hall Organ Trust and Auckland Live to sing on 4 May 2025 as part of an organ concert by visiting Australian organist, James Flores. The choir performed – along with local organist Soomin Kim – seven contrasting pieces: Geistliches Lied – Brahms, Canticum Novum – Antognini, Salvation is created – Tschesnokov, Magnificat (Collegium Regale) – Howells, Set me as a seal – Madden, Hymn to the Mother of God – Tavener, I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills – Artley. A full town hall responded enthusiastically to this fine performance from one of New Zealand’s acclaimed choral ensembles.

Tinā - Special Preview Session
We secured a special preview session of the wonderful New Zealand film ‘Tinā’ on Friday 21 February, at the Bridgeway Theatre, Northcote. The movie follows a stellar Samoan music teacher as she battles to form a choir in an elite Christchurch school after the earthquakes. The event was a sell-out, with special performances from the choir.
