Product Description

Tupuānuku recalls the third star in the Matariki (Pleiades) cluster - a star associated with food grown in the ground, and the time after the summer and autumn harvests have ended, when preparations for the cold days of winter undertaken. At this time, it is important to plant leafy winter vegetables and underground foods like potatoes, so that a family (whānau) can have food (kai) when the dark of winter settles in. Here presented in a scaled-back (but still exciting) SATB form for smaller choirs, or church groups.

This anthem is perfect at community choir concerts, or as part of any Matariki celebration. Like the other works in the series, Tupuānuku tells its own part of the Matariki story and explores the values of this burgeoning holiday on the Kiwi calendar!
