Alternately exciting, wistful, rich and romantic, The Wedding is Farr's score to the Royal New Zealand Ballet's work by the same name. In 2006, the RNZB toured New Zealand with The Wedding, one of the ballet company's most ambitious productions. The Wedding brought together Farr and prominent New Zealand novelist and librettist Witi Ihimaera.
