Celebrate Matariki with CSO in this magical concert designed especially for tamariki. Join us as we journey through the stars, exploring the rich stories, music and culture of Aotearoa’s Māori New Year. Perfect for curious young minds, this interactive performance will introduce tamariki to the wonders of Matariki through vibrant music and storytelling. Guided by CSO Māori Artist in Residence, Mahina-Ina Kingi-Kaui and the orchestra, you’ll learn the significance of the stars and the stories they carry, with plenty of fun surprises along the way! With lively rhythms, enchanting melodies and hands-on participation, tamariki will be taken on an unforgettable journey through the night sky.
Thanks to Toi Ōtautahi for their support of our inaugural CSO Māori Artist in Residence.
