organ recital
Bay of Islands Singers present:
“The King of Instruments”
An organ recital by Michael Bell
Sunday 17 October at 2.00pm
Turner Centre Auditorium
One of New Zealand’s fine young organists performs on the newly acquired Rodgers Inspire organ to be based at the Turner Centre, Kerikeri.
With its state-of-the-art 165 pipe organ voices in four different styles this is a truly amazing instrument which needs to be heard in concert.
Michael’s recital will include works by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Joplin and Widor. He will also talk about the instrument and demonstrate its various features and stops.
This is a rare opportunity to hear what Mozart rightly called the “King of Instruments” on an organ worthy of this title

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
