A piano for Madeleine

A piano for Madeleine

Artists have powerful insights that open worlds of imagination, intrigue and meaning. When we hear artists talk, our own sense of creativity is activated.

In 2012 Radio New Zealand and the Arts Foundation launched a series called YOU CALLTHIS ART. Live events recorded for replay on radio, YOU CALL THIS ART features three artists presenting some work with insights into its creation. The events are free, if you want to attend, let us know via our website www.thearts.co.nz.

New Generation Award recipient and soprano Madeleine Pierard will perform at YOU CALL THIS ART in Christchurch on 4 December. Venue options are limited in Christchurch and while we are grateful to the Air Force Museum for hosting this event, they don't have a piano.

Everyone knows that the real thing is always the best thing. We are hoping that you will want to help us with the $800 cost of moving and tuning a piano to accompany Madeleine on 4 December.

Thank you in advance for making a donation. The Arts Foundation loves technology, we are proud to have launched this website, but when it comes to pianos, there are no alternatives!
