...guys....you left me speechless....you are amazing....the sound your voices is so beautiful!....the harmonies ..my spirit is flying! Tears are coming out of my eyes and I don't know why....Thank you! Much love and God bless you!
Wow the beginning was very special and invokes alot of spirit Wairua, the sound will encapulate you as it is literally a Maori Mantra.The ladies are acknowledging all of the waka (boats) that came to Aotearoa (New Zealand) that seeded alot of the tribes and there chieftains. This is reserved for special occasions. As a Maori, I was suspended in animation and could not move till the ladies finished that part!
Beautiful performance, epitomising the biculturalism of Aotearoa NZ. Makes me so happy to see this evolution. When I sang in high school and university 20 years ago, maori culture wasn't so visible or embraced in competitions etc. So awesome to see that that this has changed!!!
Wow,that young lady on the end closest to the camera I thought deserved that gift instead of that man with the guitar!I was mesmerized by her performance as she looked like she was holding back and really wanted to express more!Awesome and proud to be a kiwi!🇳🇿🇼🇸🇳🇿
All i can say is,, Im proud as, heard Te iwi E, Aheap of times never can have to much, as for singing it overseas, Well done, more positive influence towards Kiwis. Must say this one of the best performances of Te iwi E I've seen, and I've seen a lot, thank you all, you make me proud to be a Kiwi......
Fantastic capture. As you know, I captured them in 2013 doing this excellent piece. I hope you enjoyed it in the Czech Republic as much as we did in the USA. Cheers!
Sorry to sa'y...but I mean it in a Good way. The Pakeha I see in there are neat as,,, they seem to be so respectful, its very overwhelming. Thanks for the respect of our people as our Prime Minister would do, but I would LOVE our lady Adern learn our Poi or our Haka as she has already seen. as has already got most of our respect*
Every NZ child, Maori or not studies Maori culture and is immersed in it. The hand movements are to tell the story. It can be a wedding song, sending the men off to battle, blessing the sun and fruit of the land, saying farewell, welcoming home... There is a Maori song for each event. Along with song there are also the Poi dances with the long and short poi. Its truly wonderful. I can say this. I was married to a NZ lady for 26 years and so my kids are half kiwi. If for some reason I had to move to another country, I would choose NZ. Its a beautiful country with beautiful people.
It is also artistic mimicry of the fantail bird or tiwaiwaka, among other things. The fantail is regarded as a messenger from between the spiritual and physical worlds.
@@TechnikMeister2 there is absolutely no immersion happening on the scale you’re describing. If only. Yet Tangata whenua have been battling for this for decades.
What an amazing sound
This must be the best thing I’ve ever seen and I am glad I was there
Was it amazing cause it was something different or just everything bout it action tunes men doing men parts??
Can’t say much cuz I loved this!
Much love from the Marshall Islands 🇲🇭!

Those Kiwis punching well above their weight as usual. Love them.
So SO PROUD TO BE A KIWI!!!
I'm so pleased to see young folks carrying on the culture of their ancestors. Too many countries are losing theirs to make place to "progress".

Soo very very proud of our WHAKAPAPA ❤❤

Agreed ... she's brilliant :)
Jey Mcbride she's the only one I watch during this performance, for some reason I can't take my eyes off her. Would love to know her name 😉
The lead girl is in the middle.But that end wahine has "it".
Spirit ,head tilt,eyes flash,hip and feet sway.
Pretty good i thought.
Isn't she beautiful.
@@bb21again.67 they're all beautiful 😍

Awesome! The absolute best!! Ka mau te wehi! Te mutunga ke o te pai!!.
Fabulous appreciation by the audience, & rightly so.
Proud to be a kiwi,felt the audiences genuine appreciation,beautiful song!

I find it impossible to believe that this video with over 36,000 views has only 205 likes. Impossible. XO
Probably because people have watched it more than once but can only 'like' it once - I've certainly lost count of how many times I've watched it. :)
So cool! Not many Māori in the choir but you all have it heaps, ka mau te wehi
Not many Maaori in the choir, and that's not bad: The former Europeans begin to adopt the Maaori culture.
Tumeke alright. All in the practice but its what bought them up as well......Good JOB
I normally don't like chant's but the one at the beginning is nice and easy to understand lol.
Me neither lol... use to hate singing them
Ich liebe es! Kraftvolle Stimmen mit Aussage und Tradizion!!
Beautiful..❤ it
I bet they feel really good inside
Extraordinario....muy bonito y bello
Amazing!❤❤❤❤
strong love you all
Love it so much:)
Beautiful ❤
The smallest man in the group has the best form during action song.
I really agree with you. That small man has MANA and heart

Brilliance
Tatou tatou ,Atatua .kiwi pride..
Wow
that was really good, in choral form, had to laugh at the big guy on the end...he looked so awkward LOL
The fact that he gives it a go is awesome, who cares if he's not getting the groove.
@@delmarae100 oh I think he does his country proud. I laugh at myself doing kapa haka...Im a lot more awkward :-)
He’s got a fabulous voice 😍
awesome whanau
Put the show up not just one item
as goods as it gets NZ
Where’s their pukana
Ka mau te wehi.
Nz graduate choir
The NZ flag needs to represent a new developing society. The Union Jack doesn't make the cut.
Have anyone ever seen an explanation of the hand movements?
The wiri-quiver of the hands also means we're alive. Wiri with action brings the story they are telling you alive exactly like sign language.
Every NZ child, Maori or not studies Maori culture and is immersed in it. The hand movements are to tell the story. It can be a wedding song, sending the men off to battle, blessing the sun and fruit of the land, saying farewell, welcoming home... There is a Maori song for each event.

Pakeha is our White people of New Zealand.
