WOMAD

Waihirere

From New Zealand

The unparalleled skills of Waihirere have seen them collect the national Kapa Haka title for an unprecedented fifth time in 2002, also their 50th birthday year.Based just outside Gisborne in the Tai Rawhiti region, they have travelled extensively both nationally and overseas. For WOMAD they will join with a Taranaki combined Kapa Haka group to represent Maori as tangata whenua of Aoteraroa.You will be transfixed, uplifted, moved by the spirit and soul of the performance. www.geocities.com/wrere50www.geocities.com/wrere50
