Tekau! | Celebrating 10 Years of Sistema Aotearoa
4pm Sat 6th March 2021
Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, Aotea Centre, Auckland
Champion a decade of Sistema Aotearoa unleashing the potential of tamariki, whānau and the Ōtara community through orchestral music.
Celebrating Māori and Pasifika culture through the orchestra, Tekau! features 250 young musicians across a 100-piece string orchestra and choir of 150, in a repertoire full of Sistema Aotearoa favourites including ‘Poi E’, ‘Pasifika Medley’ and ‘Maranga Rā’.
A new commission from Rob Ruha marking our 10th birthday will sit at the heart of the show, alongside special guest performances from Festival Ambassador Tigilau Ness and APO musicians, and presented by the wonderful Suzy Cato.
