DESCRIPTION:A celebration and interpretation of the many signs of Matariki guiding us towards new beginnings and endless possibilities. \nLet yourself be transported to a world where ancient wisdom meets modern marvels\, where each note carries the whispers of the stars and each word reveals the celestial secrets of creation. \n“Ngā Tohu o Matariki”\, is a collaborative collective of celebrated artists\, empowering women whose musical wisdom weaves together a soundscape for the soul to create a mesmerising musical journey. \nBringing together Māmā Mihirangi\, internationally renowned singer/songwriter\, loop-artist\, multi-instrumentalist and storyteller with Otautahi’s renowned soundscape and song ensemble Pou Ataata – combining Taonga Pūoro (Mahina Kaui)\, Voice (Lisa Tui)\, Cello (Nicole Reddington)\, and Bassoon\, Keys and Piano (Pieta Hextall). \nDrawing on their years of experience as music improvisors\, songwriters\, and collaborative performing artists\, Māmā Mihirangi and Pou Ataata\, promises to be a concert experience that is both timeless and inspired\, influenced by their expertise and sonic exploration. \nJoin us in an evening of illumination enchanted by sounds and signs of Matariki\, the harmonious empowerment of women’s voices and their wisdom\, the vibrational resonance of classical and contemporary. \n  \nAbout Pou Ataata\nPou Ataata first came together to compose and record a mesmerising soundtrack for Kathleen Galleger’s groundbreaking film ‘Te Reporepo’. Members of this talented group come from a diverse range of musical backgrounds. The original line-up consisted of acclaimed singer-songwriter Lisa Tui Jonathan\, Cellist Nicole Reddington\, and Taonga Puoro specialist Mahina Kingi-Kaui. Through the process of creating the film’s unique soundscapes\, they discovered an exciting common ground and have been inspired to continue creating music together. The group has recently been augmented by the addition of amazing multi-instrumentalist and composer Pieta Hextall. \nPou Ataata live performances offer an affirming message of care for Papatuanuku\, celebrating our uniqueness and sharing it through the beauty and profound impact of Taonga Puoro and music. \n  \nThis event is part of Matariki 2024\, where we’re celebrating Matariki with talented artists from Ōtautahi and beyond. Bring your friends and whānau to Te Matatiki Toi Ora The Arts Centre (17 – 30 Pipiri June) for music\, exhibitions\, kapa haka\, wānanga (workshops)\, kai\, light installations\, special mākete and much more. \n
