GROOVE CAFÉ

Welcome to Groove Café, where the music is strong and the vibe is even stronger. John Psathas’ Island Songs bring sun, surf, and a dash of Kiwi cool - no sunscreen required. Then you’re kept guessing with Eliodoro Sollima’s Tre movimenti, leaping from atonal intrigue to melodic surprises faster than you can say “cin cin”. Vivian Fung’s Ominous Machine whirs, glitches, and grooves like your favourite gadget on a caffeine rush. And it all ends with Nikolai Kapustin’s Divertissement, the ultimate musical cocktail: equal parts classical poise and jazz swagger, shaken (not stirred) into four sparkling movements. 

This programme will be performed with guest pianist Stephen de Pledge
