Description:
The iconic Kiwi overture. Performed by the NZSO during their 2010 European tour, this work was written by Lilburn in 1940 while he was studying with Vaughan Williams in London. With its gentle lyricism and soft modal harmonies, Overture: Aotearoa is redolent both of Lilburn’s nostalgia for New Zealand and of his influence by both Vaughan Williams and Sibelius.
