Music: Split Enz Featuring Te Matarae | Orehu

Live performance of this collaboration between the (2000) national kapa haka champions Te Matarae I Orehu and the Royal New Zealand Ballet company.
N.B. This only covers the performance by Te Matarae I Orehu.

“Go Kiwi! Ihi FrENZy sees Royal New Zealand Ballet join forces with Te Matarae I Orehu, a 40-strong Maori performance group from Rotorua. Add to the mix music by Split Enz and you've got a showcase for the best of New Zealand's artistic treasures. The first half of the programme, Ihi (power), shows traditional Maori performance at its best - if you thought the All Blacks' haka was fierce, think again! Then choreographer Mark Baldwin's FrENZy takes the audience on a journey that is as Kiwi as it comes. FrENZy features the music of Split Enz, one of New Zealand's most loved bands.” The Royal New Zealand Ballet website (19/07/2012).
