Ten leading international and national musicians will be performing along with three up-and-coming Kiwi artists whom they’ll mentor.

The Queenstown venue is Remarkables Park’s arts and cultural centre, Te Atamira, which will host concerts on October 7 and 13 and nine free events and performances.

One free event will be a music and dance collaboration between Baker and two contemporary dancers.

Following the public events,the festival artists will tour a number of local schools.
