Nau mai haere mai ki Te Ahurei Toi O Tāmaki Makaurau. Welcome to Auckland Arts Festival. We
are delighted to host you.
The Festival moves through moments in history and reflects on the impact they have on our
world. It moves across cultures and into places where there are no borders. It shows us human
beings coming together through music, performance and art.
We are delighted to present this momentous and inspired multi-disciplinary work, and offer our
thanks to the artists whose vision, hard work and passion made it happen. Congratulations John,
Jasmine, Mathew and all the artists from around the world who participated in this ground-
breaking work. And thank you to our commissioning partners and supporters.

NO MAN’S LAND
GREAT HALL, AUCKLAND TOWN HALL
FRIDAY 4 MARCH, 8:00 PM
ORIGINAL ARMENIAN LYRICS, FROM POSTLUDE (LAMENTOS) - SERJ TANKIAN
COMPOSER’S INTRODUCTION – JOHN PSATHAS
Why musicians travelling in the footsteps of soldiers 100 years ago? If we could go back in time and say to
those on the battlefields “guess what happens here in 100 years” – would they believe us? If we said the
same thing to those fighting now, would they believe us? Would we believe ourselves?
We now wage war on our own species. But even at our worst, humanity and empathy continue to survive.
Our story culminates in acts of kindness: soldiers from opposing sides, ‘enemies’, offering each other water,
a cigarette, a shoulder to lean on. Even – incredibly – in what is surely one of the most bizarre and
dangerous inventions of the human mind: a place called no man’s land.

Life is searching within us for a concert of

Death is getting us closer to the entrance of

Dear God

It's this life
Humanity eternally lost
The pure love on the face of a child
Is the victory, our road
