Purely Classical – Classics for Koha

Join Hawke’s Bay Orchestra for an intimate afternoon of beautiful classical music, featuring Mozart’s much-loved Piano Concerto No. 23 featuring concert pianist Flavio Villani, Symphony No. 39, and Mendelssohn’s Symphony No. 6 for Strings.

Flavio Villani is an Italian-New Zealand pianist who made Auckland his home after moving from Italy in 2008. He completed a Bachelor of Piano Performance with Matteo Napoli at the Conservatory “G. Martucci,” alongside a Bachelor of IT in Salerno in 2007. After working in IT in Barcelona, he moved to New Zealand to pursue his musical career, completing a Master of Piano Performance with first-class honours at the University of Auckland, and a Doctorate of Musical Arts (DMA) at the University of Waikato.

Enjoy these timeless works performed live in the intimate setting of St Paul’s, Napier.
