This season, Orchestra Wellington invites you into a world where music comes alive through connection.
The 2026 season of COLLABORATIONS celebrates the power of shared creation — with fellow musicians, ensembles, dancers, composers, and you, the audience.
Each concert brings together distinct voices — jazz-band and orchestra, chamber groups and full forces, dancers and composers — to create performances that surprise, energize, and resonate.
With world and New Zealand premieres to monumental works and intimate concerts, every programme is a statement: music isn’t made in isolation. It lives, breathes, and grows when we come together. You are an essential part of this — and this season, we make music together.
Great first performance with a perfect performance of the violin concerto . Shostakovich full of fire and passion, which is the style of music I like.
