Hi Graeme,
Sorry about the delay in getting this information to you.
I have finally received information on the Hayley Westenra Concert!
Hayley Westenra and Dave Dobbyn - In Tune With Nature
Hayley Westenra and Dave Dobbyn first shared a stage in London, to a standing audience,
at the city’s rock venue, Shepherds Bush Empire. It was an unlikely pairing that struck an
obvious chord as soon as the first duet began. When they ended the night with a stirring
version of Dobbyn’s ‘Welcome Home’ it was clear they would work together again.
Things are very different second time around - New Zealand summer evenings, the stage and
backdrop are the spectacular settings of some the finest vineyards, open air, green, a safe family
environment, blankets, wine and good food, room to dance, space to cloud-gaze, transport to
the gate…….. This time they are in tune with nature.
The ‘In Tune With Nature’ concert series, presented by Newstalk ZB, offers a rare opportunity to
see on the same bill the 3-million-selling Westenra and Dobbyn, whose songs have become the
soundtrack to many New Zealand lives. They will each perform separately with their own band
and collaborate on songs that have stood the test of time. The programme will also feature the
talented violin player, Fiona Pears.
Dobbyn picks up the background: “I arrived in London in time for rehearsals and Hayley would
say “what about Welcome Home?” or we’d think of a song that resonated with both of us and
soon we had a list of duets, from Oughta Be In Love to Tim Finn’s ‘Six Months in a Leaky Boat’,
but there just wasn’t time to pull them all together. Now we are exchanging those song-titles
again in preparation for the February tour. ”
Westenra’s successful international career – she recorded the highest-selling record of all time in
New Zealand, in Japan it is the best-selling classical album in the country’s history and the
fastest-selling classical debut in the UK – means she is unable to visit home as frequently as she
would wish. And Dobbyn’s focus will soon turn from past songs to future writing when he
heads to London in March to record his new album.
So if you do nothing else this summer, catch these two great names on one outstanding bill at
six stunning outdoor events in February.

Hi Everyone, This ones an easy one to find. In a nutshell its: Get off the plane & walk North for about 3 Kms & you'll fall over it. If you time it right Hayley can give you a lift.   Graeme |

Hello Graeme, I will be making a 'final announcement' about which concert i will be attending very soon. Unfortunately i have a number of personal issues to resolve at the moment in my life, and they might get in the midst of Hayley's tour. Having said that, i will be making a final decision soon and letting everyone know. It's horrible to have Hayley so close, yet for her to feel so far away.  Life does happen some times, and it obviously doesn't go our way when we would like it to. Hopefully i won't dissapoint too many people on HWI, because that has been my greatest concern.  Dori |

Hello everyone, I just wanted to say that I have no idea how on earth the Auckland concert is going to go ahead, because we have very bad weather for the next three days. If it clears up tomorrow, things will be a little different, but at the moment, it doesn't look good for any Auckland concert goers. It will be interesting to see what happens. How would we know if it was cancelled, and would they re-schedule it if it was?  Dori |

Hi Dori I very much doubt if they would cancel a concert because of the weather, unless, of course, it made conditions dangerous for concert goers/performers. Here in the UK we would just be expected to dress accordingly and that is perhaps why there have been 'no umberella' warnings at previous concerts.  Best wishes Grant |
