Resound

Resound is a venture between RNZ Concert and SOUNZ, the Centre for New Zealand Music, funded by NZ On Air, to unlock rare recordings of significant compositions by New Zealand composers from our archive.

Background

Recordings date back as far as fifty years ago, with works that were played on air with a license for two broadcasts. The re-licensing efforts of the Resound project have secured permissions from composers and performers to allow listeners to enjoy these important historic recordings once again.

Over the last few years our New Zealand recordings have been gradually transferred into digital formats, so that we can  re-broadcast select works and also offer them to listeners on our website.
