The annual concert by North Shore Brass celebrating Mothers this year features a world champion.
Grayson Masefield is a world champion piano accordionist being the first person in the world to win world championships in all three categories of classical, virtuoso and digital accordion categories. With his grandfather importing accordions, the instrument has been a part of his family history.
Grayson says he plays the piano “badly” and he needed a second instrument for university music studies, so it was natural to fall back onto his family legacy.
Since graduating Grayson has toured the world adjudicating and performing at festivals – most recently this year already - Sweden, Denmark and Shanghai. In addition, he performs with Aotango a quintet of professional musicians who regularly appear in New Zealand.
This cabaret concert promises music from around the world to celebrate our mothers from our two brass bands as well as special guest accordionist Grayson Masefield accompanied by North Shore Brass, the champion band of Auckland and runners up to the NZ Brass Band Championship.
Guests are seated at tables of eight with bar and food available.
