Manawatu Guardian
This Saturday, Te Manawa commemorates the 181st anniversary of the signing of Te Tiriti o Waitangi with a day of events and activities.
At 1pm, Jerome Kavanagh returns to Te Manawa in Palmerston North for a performance of his Oro Atua show, a journey through the world of taonga pūoro – traditional Māori musical instruments.
Experience Kavanagh s collection of about 40 unique and rare Māori musical instruments: from the nguru (whale tooth nose flute) to the porutu pounamu (greenstone long flute); the kōauau toroa (albatross wing bone flute) to the unique putorino, a cocoon-shaped trumpet flute made from the mighty tōtara tree.
