…each generation can traverse these waters, put down an anchor, and take in the view. This is a Māori futurism. — Hana Burgess & Te Kahuratai Painting, ‘On’ata, anamata: A whakapapa perspective of Māori futurisms’ (2020)
Weaving the powerful kupu of acclaimed author Tina Makereti and Riki Gooch’s visionary Rangatuone approach to taonga puoro composition, Ā Mua brings a story of Māori futurism to life.
Unfolding through four movements inspired by the Māori creation story, this performance journeys from the elemental to the contemporary, grounded in mātauranga Māori. Taking Māori futurism, whakapapa and taiao as its starting points, Ā Mua spirals and forms connections across time.
Live at the Tāwhiri Warehouse, prepare to be immersed in this spellbinding new work, featuring the incredible artistry of Tina Makereti (author/narrator), Riki Gooch (conductor/composer/taonga puoro), Ruby Solly (cello/taonga puoro), Serenity Thurlow (viola) and Alistair Fraser and Kiva Pirihi (taonga puoro).
I Ā Mua, ka tuituia ngā kupu a te kaituhi rongonui, a Tina Makereti, me te tirohanga auaha a Riki Gooch ki ngā titonga taonga pūoro, ā, ka puta he kōrero mō te ao hurihuri Māori o anamata. Mā ngā nekehanga e whā i ahu mai i tā te Māori kōrero mō te orokohanga o te ao, ka huataki tēnei whakaaturanga i te tīmatanga, ahu mai ki nāianei, ko tōna tūāpapa, ko te mātauranga Māori. He puoro mataora, he kōrero whakataki ka rere, nō reira, kia rite mai kia whakamīharotia koe e tēnei mahi nanakia.
