Product Description

At Matariki, we remember those who have passed in the previous year, as well all those we have loved who have passed. The Matariki star, Pōhutukawa, reminds us to reflect on this - in Māori lore, when a person passes, they travel along the spirit path (Te Ara Wairua) to the tip of the North Island at Te Rerenga Wairua, where the follow the root of a solitary pōhutukawa tree to the next world. Here presented in a scaled-back (but still exciting) SATB form for smaller choirs, or church groups.

Prepare for tears when you hear the stunning choir version of "Pōhutukawa." Perfect as a song at concerts, or as part of any Matariki celebration with reflection in mind. It tells the story and explores the values of this burgeoning holiday on the Kiwi calendar!
