about

Live Version: fb.watch/3A105q2k82/

Ororuarangi is a dynamic yet calming composition which takes you on a journey exploring traditional instruments and originative sound design techniques. An intimate glimpse into the soundscape of taonga pūoro, most notably the putorino, a traditional flute, whose shape resembles the case moth, which embodies Hineraukatauri the atua (goddess) of music. The lyrics are inspired by band member Reti Hedley's late mother, Rangiiria Hedley and her work in the revitalisation of taonga pūoro during her life.
