Hiva Folau Vaka - Vaka Carrying Music supports the creation of new original songs in Pacific languages. It is the legacy project for the PMA Trust and is our contribution to the revitalisation of our Pacific languages. The first phase of the project focuses on the in the languages of Vagahau Niue, Te Gagana Tokelau and Te Reo Maori Kuki Airani. The project involves a village approach, bringing a collective together for 3 days, with all the elements provided for the artists, including experienced producers, knowledge holders, language experts and quality recording studios. Our next gatherings for the project will be hosted in April and May, in Wellington and Auckland. |
