Anatolian born classical guitarist Barkin Sertkaya will join Bruce Paine for a concert entitled ‘Anatolia - Aotearoa’. This will be a special manifestation of Barkin’s touring programme which has proven most popular with audiences. Barkin will play a selection of guitar works inspired by music of his homeland and Bruce will offer a New Zealand perspective with some of his own compositions.
Featuring the premiere performance of ‘Anatolia - Aotearoa’, a newly composed guitar duet by Bruce Paine, celebrating and blending Middle Eastern and New Zealand/European musical styles. The duet is also in memory of the Christchurch Mosque shooting that occurred in March this year, 2019.
