Review 1 for New Zealand Symphony Orchestra

My Mum and I went to "NZ Symphony Orchestra with Frankie Stevens - Christmas Pops" in Rotorua. I would have to say we were really disappointed. I don't know where Christmas came from, only four Xmas songs were played in the 1st hr. I was expecting the whole show to be xmas songs, not classical songs. You couldn't even hear alot of the instruments such as the piano. Then when Frankie Stevens sung the four Xmas carols, you couldn't hear the music at all, he was way to overpowering for the music. It was also annoying with Frankie Stevens talking all the time, telling his little "stories". They should have just played music.
When half time came, the orchestra just got up and walked off. There was no announcement of an interval or nothing. So for people like us who did not buy a program, we did not know if the show was over or what. We learnt it was half time, and decided the show was not as expected and left. The way it was advertised was made out to be Christmas songs played by the orchestra, not classical music.

We really enjoyed the brass show. Quite incredible that they played a full, balanced sound with just horns - pieces that were written for a whole orchestra . My hat off to the second trombone who adapted the scores. It was beautifully performed. Lush when all 13 horns (and four percussionists) played - and exquisite when it contracted to just two or three playing at a time. At times I felt like I was at a play, wondering what was going to happen next. The swing number at the end was unexpected and relieved some of the serious drama of the classical. Thanks

The concert was amazing. Elizabeth is such a talented young lady and so natural.
The choice of songs was great and made for very easy listening.
We traveled on to Wanganui where I attended at the Opera House with my daughter.
It was just as amazing second time around.
Bought the CD so we could play it in the car.

I have never been to see the NZSO before and had the best time. Elizabeth can sing an amazing range of songs. I would definitely go to a show of this calibre again.
I am looking forward to the next visit by the NZSO.
