Introduction to Taonga Puoro: Porotiti and Pūrerehua

Filmed during the COVID-19 rāhui/lockdown in April 2020. Introduction to Taonga Puoro: Porotiti and Pūrerehua Ngā oro of Tāwhirimātea Porotiti and Pūrerehua are Taonga Puoro that come to us from the realm of the winds and the air. Singing the songs of Tāwhirimātea, they produce vibrations that have the power to clear blockages and bring balance to both the physical and spiritual realms. In this session, Jerome shows how, despite their simple mechanics, the Porotiti and Pūrerehua generate sounds of tremendous depth and vastness that even have the amazing ability to heal our bodies. Learn about these special Taonga Puoro, their Whakapapa, and their multiple functions in ceremony, in healing, and in musical performance.
