RNZ Concert — May 2012

About the documentary

Amelia Nurse talks to a range of composers and practitioners about taonga pūoro, and raises interesting issues about their use in a ‘western’ context.

The full interviews couldn’t be included in the programme, but are now available to listen to online, including a conversation with me about composing for taonga pūoro.
