Neighbourhood - Karori (with Chris Chang)
Television (Full Length Episode) – 2014
Sports presenter Chris Chang brings Neighbourhood to his childhood home of Karori to showcase and celebrate the Wellington suburb's diversity. Chang, a Kiwi Malaysian-Chinese, introduces four families who have made Aotearoa their home — all for very different reasons. There's the Dutch viola player who spent 27 years with the NZ Symphony Orchestra, a Russian housewife who supports her diplomat husband on his placements, an Iranian woman who fled religious persecution in her home country, and the Holocaust survivor and her family who started anew in the sprawling suburb.
The NZSO is a world-class orchestra. I've never played in an orchestra with this level...– Dutch Peter Van Drimmelen on playing viola with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra
