Event Information:
Manawatia a Matariki! No fewer than eight choirs, five composers, three lyricists, and a kapa haka ropu will all feature in Matariki He Kahui Reo (Matariki, a constellation of voices), the ground-breaking choral work that is Aotearoa New Zealand's signature offering at the World Choir Games 2024. Devised by creative team John Rosser, Robert Wiremu and Ataahua Papa, the work celebrates the nine identified whetu (stars) of the Matariki cluster. A group of the country's most eminent choral composers - David Hamilton, Anthony Ritchie, Chris Artley, Rosa Elliott and Reuben Rameka - has set to music texts by Tuirina Wehi, Ataahua Papa and Maori star lore expert Rangi Matamua, who advised the creative team throughout the writing process.
