Three pianists steadily making a name for themselves in New Zealand and internationally will perform at the Warkworth Town Hall on April 22.
The trio are all studying at the University of Auckland School of Music with Dr Rae de Lisle and Stephen de Pledge.
They will each give a solo piano recital but end the concert with a rousing piece for six hands.
Modi Deng, 20, has performed with the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra, Auckland Philharmonic and Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. She was a semi-finalist in the Lev Vlassenko Piano Competition in Brisbane.
Siyu Sun, 20, has won prizes in the New Zealand National Concerto Competition, the Wallace National Piano Competition and the Lev Vlassenko Piano Competition.
Sara Lee began her musical training at age six and studied in Seoul and Moscow before coming to the University of Auckland. She has won numerous prizes in national and international competitions.
Warkworth Music, which is presenting the concert, says the virtuosity and passion of these outstanding pianists will “entrance, move and uplift”.
The programme will include works by Scarlatti, Chopin, Mendelssohn and Rachmaninoff.
Tickets are $35 at the door, school students free.
