About

This short blessing is a setting of a Maori text from the liturgy of the Anglican church in New Zealand. The original version was written for my group Opus at Epsom Girls Grammar School, Auckland. In the music I have tried to suggest something of the traditional Maori chant styles and also the more recent European-influenced twentieth century musical styles. This SATB version was made in November 2003 at the request of American choral conductor Lucy Ding.
