Events Calendar

Join us at the gallery in Central Stories Museum & Gallery, for an intimate evening concert, travelling from Spain to the Americas through the music of the classical guitar.

We begin where the classical guitar began, in Spain, listening to some of the most beautiful lyrical pieces, contrasted by intricate and subtle works, moving from classicism to romanticism, with the rhythms of Andalusia and reflective poetry in music.

After a short break we explore the world of South American music; as with its roots in Spain and Portugal, Latin America has never lost its love affair with the guitar, developing its own unique rhythmic signatures, and transforming traditional dance forms into vibrant pieces of art.

Serenading the evening will be none other than Braden Southee, featured as a classical soloist at the 2025 Dunedin Arts Festival, and acclaimed for his virtuosic, engaging performances. Braden is a devoted authentic musician, and his love for his craft is evident in every note. With his guidance through storytelling, history, and music, you can expect to lose track of time, and walk away lighter.

“Agile fretwork and a quietly confident stage presence elicited sincere admiration…music performed with simplicity and virtuosity.… the audience delighted in Southee’s deft mastery. Southee’s impressive command of the classical guitar and passionate love for his craft were evident in every note he played”
