Description

Māori music has many important composers, some of whom use traditional mōteatea (chanted song-poetry), and others whose music includes introduced musical styles and influences. Later composers have created new music in te reo Māori ( Māori language), which reflects the history, culture, and experiences of Māori. Since 1991, several musicians have worked to revive the playing of traditional instruments (taonga puoro).
