Matariki at the Corban’s Estate

What a wonderful evening.  Cat Tunks from Black Sand Diva helped organise a great group of musicians out at the Corban’s Estate. Outside somewhat wet and dreary, but inside … wonderfully warm with a great atmosphere.

The evening started with Huia Hamon singing a lovely Waiata. Really very special to have Huia explain the meaning behind the words so we could better appreciate what was being sung. Very special and quite lovely. Sadly, Huia wasnlt on stage very long, but I did manage a few photos of her. Please take a look here and let me know what you think. Want to know more about Huia?

Next to perform were the students from Avondale College. Escorted to the site by the one and only Malcolm Lakatani, these students were superb! A real credit to their tutors and the school itself. Oozing talent … there’s some future music stars in these students that’s for sure!

Following the students we were treated to Black Sand Diva and then Mihirangi Mihi – The Queen of the Loops. I’ve posted a couple of albums of images of Black Sand Diva and Mihirangi Mihi if you’d like to see some more shots. All in all quite a special evening!
