A Tribute to NZ Popular Music - The Vocal Collective

The Piano presents, A Tribute to... Celebrate the joy of live music in a one-hour concert series.

One of New Zealand’s largest contemporary choirs, The Vocal Collective was formed to bring joy in the aftermath of the Canterbury earthquakes.

Gemma Greenwood on Radio New Zealand Today referred to the group as “the single, most magnificent thing to come out of the earthquakes”.

Over the following, challenging decade, The Vocal Collective has continued to uplift the community with its unique versions of contemporary favourites.

Its repertoire is chosen from a wide range of genres and vocal styles such as pop, rock, jazz and musical theatre, creating a stimulating mix for performers and audiences alike.

The 90-strong ensemble, led by Artistic Director, Richard Marrett performs with great precision, passion and impact. The rich sound of their massed voices blending in harmonious ballads and rip-roaring rock classics commands attention and captures the audience’s imagination with each engaging performance.

It is no surprise that they are in demand for concerts, corporate entertainment, wedding celebrations and numerous community events.
