Come together to celebrate Matariki and honour waiata reo Māori at Auckland Philharmonia’s Waiata Anthems in Concert, a soul-stirring evening of live music collaboration.
This mighty Matariki show features rising vocal artists Jordyn with a Why, MOHI and Geneva AM, joined by Te Kura Māori o Ngā Tapuwae Kapa Haka, and a full strength Auckland Philharmonia, performing songs from the original 2019 award-winning Waiata Anthems album.
In 2019 Waiata Anthems debuted at No.1 in the NZ Music Charts – the first 100% reo Māori album to do so – and spent 16 weeks in the NZ Top 40.
Experience the original songs from this iconic multi award-winning album, as Auckland Philharmonia and the next generation of up-and-coming young Waiata Anthems artists pay tribute to the album that helped start a movement.
These talented rising stars will perform songs, reimagined for orchestra, such as Tami Neilson’s ‘Roimata | Cry Myself to Sleep’, Stan Walker’s ‘Tēnā Rā Koe | Thank You’, Drax Project’s ‘I Moeroa | Woke Up Late’ and many others.
Join Auckland Philharmonia for this unique concert collaboration as they come together to celebrate Matariki and honour waiata reo Māori.
