Daniel Verstappen NZ Tour, with Joe Harrop

Live at the Grainstore Gallery, Belgian international pianist and composer Daniel Verstappen returns to Aotearoa New Zealand in 2026 for an extensive national tour spanning both the North and South Islands. Verstappen is known for his cinematic, neoclassical musical language, blending original compositions with re-imagined film music and crossover repertoire. His work consistently connects international artistry with local collaboration, making his projects accessible to broad audiences while maintaining strong artistic integrity. Performing alongside Daniel for this concert will be the well-known kiwi violinist, Joe Harrop.

Following a highly successful New Zealand & Australia tour in 2024, this year Verstappen deepens his long-term artistic relationship with the country through concerts, youth orchestra collaborations, artist residencies, community engagement, and the recording of a new album at Sublime Studio in the Waitaki Valley.
