Hawaiki; Six Conceptions Op. 60 (9a) adapts texts from Te Ika a Maui, or New Zealand and its Inhabitants by Reverend Richard Taylor (1805-1873), in particular drawing upon its depictions of Maori creation myths. Scored for large orchestra and chorus in six movements, the work lasts approximately 45 minutes, making it among the longest and most ambitious of my compositions.
