The third in the Zodiac series of acclaimed Maori historical releases, the Rotorua Whaka Maori Concert Party provides an exhilarating concert-going experience quite unlike any other.

Descended mostly from members of the Arawa tribe, these traditional songs and chants tell a story dating back centuries to the earliest settlement of New Zealand, thus providing a riveting historical perspective and fascinating narrative told in the traditional Maori language.

This particular recording has been recognized as one of the greatest examples of the Maori Concert party in action, and as such offers a thrilling experience to any listener.
