Supertonic choir presents
It’s all coming back: A Supertonic 90s Mix-Tape
Supertonic choir to celebrate 10th anniversary with a night of all-out 90s nostalgia!
In its 10th anniversary year, the innovative Supertonic choir of Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington is excited to announce the details of the final concert series for 2024.
Through 2024 Supertonic has been celebrating all things.. well.. Supertonic! A classical concert exploring relationships between kindred composers, separated by centuries and Whakarongo - a celebration of the composers and voices of Aotearoa. To finish up the year, and showing just how versatile this choir is, they’ll be winding back the clock taking you back to the soundtrack of millennial childhoods.
On Friday 29 and Saturday 30 November, Supertonic will present three performances of It’s All Coming Back: A Supertonic 90s Mix-Tape at the place where creativity begins in Wellington - Te Auaha. If you’re looking for an experience that will take you back to when you didn’t need to know what an iPod was - then this one’s for you.
This show will be a throw-back to the time when you just had to hope you’d catch your favourite song on the radio in time to tape it. Mix-tapes were random, but always made with love. Were you a fan of the pop princess or the boy band? Perhaps rock or emo was more your thing. This concert has something for everyone - from Boyz II Men to the Smashing Pumpkins, Britney Spears to Radiohead. You’ll also hear music from closer to home with songs from The Muttonbirds and Crowded House, and of course the queen of divas herself - Celine Dion.
So dig out your double denim, and your hypercolor t-shirt and get yourself and your friends ready for a night of all-out nostalgia! Supported by a full rock band and string quartet, for the final concert series of the year Supertonic is ready to party like it’s 1999 (and 1998, and 1997, and… you get the picture!).
Following the selling out of our Allocated Seats for all three performances, we have just released a handful of General Admission tickets on the mezzanine level for each of our performances. Currently there are still tickets for Saturday matinee and evening performances.
Please note that these seats are on stools (with backs) and are only accessible by stairs.

The Choir
Supertonic is a Wellington-based choir that strives to push the boundaries of what choral music can be.
The choir was formed in 2014 and since then has performed concerts that cover the entire musical spectrum, from Vaughan Williams' Mass in G Minor, Vivaldi's Gloria and Faure's Requiem to pop and rock spectaculars celebrating Fleetwood Mac, David Bowie, Elton John and Queen.
The choir has performed alongside Brett McKenzie and The Muppets in the Jim Henson Retrospectacle, joined and Mama Kin Spender at the local Coastella music festival, performed in national Anzac and Armistice day broadcasts, and in 2023 flew to the Armageddon Expo in Auckland to perform High Score: Legendary soundtracks in concert.
Supertonic's returning co-musical director Isaac Stone has led the choir since its inception. A teacher of classroom music and leader of the choral programme at Tawa College in Wellington, he places a premium on making choral music that is enjoyable and accessible to singers and audiences alike.
