In a serene Sunday afternoon concert with Turkish classical guitarist Barkin Sertkaya the two musicians will play music from their homelands.

They will also debut a new piece composed by Paine, commemorating the victims and heroes of Christchurch mosque shootings. The piece starts with tragedy and sadness, transforming gently into a sense of hope and an uplifting of the heart, infusing Middle Eastern harmonies and rhythms with Western.
