New Zealand's Voices choir ends acclaimed 2025 European tour with premieres of Māori-language works and honors departing director Karen Grylls.

Voices New Zealand’s 2025 European tour concluded with acclaim in London, Paris, Hamburg, and Stockholm, where the choir performed at major venues including St Martin-in-the-Fields and Notre Dame Cathedral. Praised for precision and emotional depth, they premiered new works by Aotearoa composers, including the BBC Singers’ first te reo Māori commission. Led by Music Director Karen Grylls, the ensemble will mark her final season in March 2026 with a special concert at the New Zealand Festival of the Arts, featuring Re-imagined Mozart: Erebus and new pieces by Takerei Komene and Leonie Holmes.
