Catch up on Choral Connect '21 - Pou-Rewa: Mātauranga Māori and Creativity

#

30 June 2022

A year on from last year’s highly successful Choral Connect conference in Auckland, we’re delighted to release the first in a series of videos we recorded at selected conference sessions.

Choral Connect is the Association of Choral Director’s (ACD’s) biennial conference providing professional development and networking for choral musicians of all backgrounds and experience. The 2021 conference theme was The Choral Traditions of Aotearoa New Zealand, and many of the presentations explored and celebrated the musical traditions of our Māori and Pasifika communities.

First in our series is a presentation by Dr. Te Ahukaramū Charles Royal, titled Pou-Rewa: Mātauranga Māori and Creativity, in which he brings his experience as a composer, performer, and researcher of indigenous knowledge to share how aspects of mātauranga Māori inform our approaches to creativity.
