Low Tide – Aramoana is a setting of a poem by Cilla McQueen, and is used with her kind permission. The piece, written for large choir and a small brass ensemble, is an evocation of an estuary at the turn of the tide. Although the poem itself describes Aramoana at the mouth of Otago harbour (significant at the time because of the threat of the aluminium smelter that, because of the strength of local protest, was in fact not built), for the composer it was the estuary where the Ruakaka river meets the sea south of Whangarei that was significant.

Inspired by sparkling waters of Tasman Bay Nelson, this choral work (SSAATB) was originally composed with flute accompaniment, which has been substituted in performances by the Shakuhachi (traditional Japanese flute) and also the Koauau (traditional Maori flute). There are recordings of Pounamu with each of these flutes. The piece’s choral texture uses Maori vowel sounds and a text which is a whakatauki (proverb) from the Waikato region.

Hone Tuwhare’s poem “The Old Place” conjures up a picture of an old run down house that no-body comes to visit. “No one cares to look upon the drunken fence posts and the gate white with moss. No-one except the wind saw the old place make her final curtsy to the earth and sky.” Hone Tuwhare’s words are very evocative and it was not hard to write music that emphasized the picture of people leaving their run-down farms and moving to the cities, in the hope of a better life.
