Koha - Māori Musicians
Television (Full Length Episode) – 1986
These hands weren’t made for lifting bricks.– Bunny Walters
Because I’ve chosen opera as a field of work, I’m looked upon as an intelligent Māori which I find rather degrading because if you take a close look at our culture, it’s so operatic it’s not funny.– Richard Haeata
Music is an instrument I can use to find myself.– Mahinārangi Tocker
