The Zukerman Experience - book now!

The Zukerman Experience - multi concert tickets available, book now!
Thursday 13- Saturday 15, Auckland Town Hall

Legendary violinist Pinchas Zukerman performs in Auckland this August!

This three day festival - The Zukerman Experience - takes in four extraordinary performances, three of which see Mr Zukerman perform with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and one as a member of the Zukerman Chamber Players.

These three days really will be an "experience" in the true sense of the word. Each performance will have its own special character, and each will be equally electrifying. Audiences and critics around the world talk about 'the Zukerman tone' - it is music that is extraordinary and thrilling to hear.

This is an opportunity to hear this legendary musician perform the Elgar and Beethoven Violin concertos and the Brahms Concerto for Violin and Cello with the nation's flagship orchestra. The Zukerman Chamber Players performance sees Pinchas Zukerman perform some of the supreme writing for chamber music - including Kodály's Duo for violin and cello - with four of his musical protégés.
