Mānawatia a Matariki! 2023 brings the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra and one of Aotearoa’s most brilliant and adventurous artists together again to celebrate Matariki with an inspiring night of musical fusion.

Well into his mission to release 10 albums in 10 years, Troy Kingi (Te Arawa, Ngāpuhi, Te Whānau-ā-Apanui) is a bona fide musical genius – equally comfortable singing soul, funk, disco, rock and everything in between.

Expect the unexpected as Kingi and the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra perform a symphonic, funkadelic rendition of the album ‘Shake That Skinny Ass All the Way to Zygertron’ live in concert. With lush orchestral arrangements by Mahuia Bridgman-Cooper, Thursday, July 13 will be an amazing night of creativity and collaboration.

Auckland Town Hall, July 13
