Brief news from nzorgan.com & pipelinepress.com

We're back home!

Most of Christchurch has today poured through the newly opened doors of the town hall to see what all the work for the past few years has been about. They queued from 9am for the start at noon, they saw, they ooohed and ahhhed - and tomorrow will be a repeat. Then come the next round of events. Biggest for us will be Martin's two free organ solo concerts on Wednesday March 6th at 1.10pm and 6pm.
Just note:

  • The concerts are FREE. There are no bookings and no reservations necessary or possible. Simply turn up and take any seat. They last an hour, and the 1.10pm concert will be officially opened by Mayor Lianne Dalziel.
  • Doors will open 50 minutes before the start of the concerts. With 2500 seats and two concerts no-one will miss out! (The gallery will be open)
  • Although the concerts are free, bring plenty of cash! There will be a 20-page, picture-filled souvenir programme for $10 for starters. The Friends of the Christchurch Town Hall Organ Trust will be taking taking subscriptions or donations at their table in the foyer; they are running an organ-themed sales table with Martin's CD "Resounding Aftershocks" (launched on the day- $20) and other merchandise will be for sale. 
  • The programme for the concert can be seen on the nzorgan.com website here
  • Just come. What ever you do, don't miss coming along to celebrate with us.

Watch the opening concerts live!
"But I live in the UK/the USA/Zambia/Lichenstein and I can't be there!" we hear you wail. Fear not! The era of live streaming is our friend for faraway followers. Both the lunchtime and the 6pm concert will be live streamed thanks to Shipleys Audiovisual, and the link is also being carried by Organlive.com in the USA. After the concerts have finished a permanent link will be uploaded to the nzorgan.com and pieplinepress.com websites so you can still catch up with the hullabaloo long after the balloons have deflated. Click on the image above for the link.

Order now

In January, after clambering over building materials and and heaps of gravel, Martin recorded a CD on the organ in Christchurch Town Hall called "Resounding Aftershocks". It will be launched at the concerts on March 6th 2019, but pre-orders are now possible. More info here
Kate and Bobby are gloating to neighbourhood moggies that their dad is playing a piece in their honour at the concert. Anyone who can name the piece and the composer that they are referring to, please email info@pipelinepress.com with your answer, your email address, and your name, before March 3rd. You'll go in the draw to win a cat. No, whoops, cancel that. A frog. Nope, no no... a CD! That's it. The prize is Martin's latest CD, "Resounding Aftershocks".  (And here's a wee tip: the tracklist is on www.nzorgan.com, www.organist.co.nz, and www.pipelinepress.com
Enough babblings from me. Just make sure you note the date of the concerts and do come to see your city's living room soon. We want to see YOU!
