Adam Perry Performs with String Orchestra, Auckland – New Zealandby Heather Masefield Secretary, New Zealand Accordion Association |
| Due to Covid-19, the KBB Music Festival committee had to cancel this year’s annual festival in its usual format. However, instead they have organised an alternative program which supports the continuance of ensemble music in Auckland Secondary Schools. The Auckland Secondary School’s Music Festival Trust was excited to announce the KBB 2020 Band & Orchestra Showcase, which offered participating schools a chance to present some of their planned 2020 repertoire to a wider audience. Entering this festival, Auckland accordionist Adam Perry joined the 2020 St Kentigern Chamber Orchestra to perform “Oblivion” by Astor Piazzolla. “With all the disruptions to music programmes over the year, it is wonderful to see the school make the effort to get the kids playing and then recording it professionally.” Adam Perry has represented New Zealand at the 2019 Coupe Mondiale in Shenzhen, China and is the NZAA 2019 South Pacific Junior Virtuoso Entertainment Champion. |
