This special and timely performance celebrates the 50th anniversary of The Rodger Fox Big Band and marks the 100th anniversary of Hone Tuwhare’s birth.
With the blessing of Hone Tuwhare’s son Rob Tuwhare and the Hone Tuwhare Charitable Trust, Rodger Fox has brought together a team of renowned music collaborators to create this thought-provoking new work.
