Distinguished New Zealand musicians Bridget Douglas- flute and Rachel Thomson - piano present the July 27 Globe Sunday Matinee concert.

Bridget and Rachel present some of their favourite works for flute and piano. Beginning with a sublime Sonata by JS Bach they then move into the golden era of the flute with beautiful pieces by French romantic composers Gabriel Faure and Lili Boulanger. They finish with deeply moving and atmospheric works by two of Australasia's most respected composers, Gillian Whitehead and Anne Boyd.

Both Bridget and Rachel were born in Dunedin and studied music at the Victoria University of Wellington where they first played together. They have recorded two flute and piano albums on the Trust Records Label and over the course of their careers they have performed together throughout Aotearoa.

Rachel regularly performs with some of the country’s leading musicians. She has toured on numerous occasions for Chamber Music New Zealand and is a member of various chamber ensembles including the Koru Trio.

Bridget is Section Principal Flute of the NZSO and an Artist Teacher in Flute at the New Zealand School of Music - Te Kōkī
