Episode 156 features an interview with a number of the key participants as we trace the journey of “getting the band back together” as artistic director, composer and choir leader Rim D Paul and friends re-form the Aotearoa National Maori Choir (Te Roopu Waiata Maori o Aotearoa). After a ten-year hiatus, the choir draws together around 80 singers from across the whenua to collaborate with instrumental band The Yoots on a special commission – to perform on the main stage at WOMAD Taranaki 2013…. an exceptional reformation and an artistic success !
