Hearing protection
Manawatu Sinfonia and Youth Orchestra members are entitled to a special discount on custom made earplugs with Heartland Audiology.
Plans for 2021 are under discussion at the moment! We are, as ever, keeping a watchful eye on alert levels.
The Sinfonia plans to hold what was to be this year's May concert with Peter van Drimmelen (conductor) and Emma Minchin (flautist) in May 2021. In a variation on the original programme, "Tutaki", a piece for orchestra and solo viola written by our late colleague Clace Schwabe will be performed.
Further details on concerts will be announced shortly.
