In 2024, Orchestra Wellington and Wellington City Libraries team up for the 2024 Beyond the Page festival of storytelling, taking place during the Term 3 school holidays (Saturday 28th September – Sunday 13th October).

As part of the festival, Michelle Velvin (harp) and Peter Maunder (trombone) will present FREE performances of our popular educational show, Play me a Story. Peter and Michelle perform on a unique combination of musical instruments from the orchestra as well as instruments like the guitar and recorder to bring to life a musical story that is sure to delight and engage.

Suitable for all school-aged tamariki and the whole whānau, this musical performance offers the opportunity for audiences to help the performers compose their very own musical story as part of the programme!
