What happens when you cross a classical choir with an indie pop group and throw in a guest conductor? Pure magic is the hope of Nota Bene along with Wellington three-piece The Mermaidens and conductor Ivan Patterson. Their concert Cactus Cat Tears bridges the gap between classical choral music and popular music with tunes from Amy Winehouse to David Bowie and Flight of the Concords to Prince.
