Community Outreach

Antipodes Quartet - Fellowship Ensemble Programme
The Community Outreach programme is our commitment to taking chamber music to an extended audience.
In January and February 2026, in the week after the Adam Summer School and during the Adam Chamber Music Festival, the Antipodes Quartet will have a schedule of performances in free spaces around town, including the Suter Art Gallery and the Nelson Library. We welcome everyone to come along, and bring anyone you think might be curious to hear some classical music in a relaxed environment. These short performances are incredibly popular!
The Fellowship Ensemble Programme is a joint venture by New Zealand String Quartet Trust, Chamber Music New Zealand and Adam Chamber Music Festival as an exciting professional development opportunity for four of New Zealand’s most promising young string players. Throughout 2025, the quartet took their debut tour across New Zealand and performed alongside the New Zealand String Quartet and Orchestra Wellington. In 2026, they will attend the Adam Summer School, and perform at the Adam Chamber Music Festival.
The schedule of free concerts will be released closer to the festival.
