Taringa Podcast

Ngā kupu o te haka. Paraone and Te Puaheiri look through He Tohu Whenua Rangatira - A judges compendium of terms used to describe aspects of haka, discussing a selection of kupu from it's glossary. Not only are these kupu for haka but also for our daily use. A challenge is issued to all kapa and non-participating to use these kupu kei ngaro.

He aha te reo o te kaiwhakawā o te kaiwhiriwhiri rānei? What is the language of the judge? What are some of the remarks they make when marking certain items of the kapahaka bracket?

Kahurangi also explains the techinicality of the poi.

As we build up to Te Matatini 2023 we invite one of the giants of te ao kapa haka; Trevor Maxwell to join us. We hear untold stories of what happened in 1983 and how "2 weeks in Manutuke" propelled many kapa into existence. We also hear about the risks Trevor and his kapa took to push the boundaries of kapahaka.

In this episode, JJ Carberry joins us for a wānanga about the provisions of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and we kōrero about what we can do as a part of the resistance.

The Taringa crew kick-off 2023 with MC Grammar, gently easing everyone into the nuance of appositions i roto i te reo Māori.

Delving deep back into the archives, Paraone and Snowy listen to some excerpts from the 1988 Aotearoa Traditional Māori Performing Arts Festival (now called Matatini) which was held in Whāngarei. We also have a special impromptu phone call with a prolific Māori composer to offer their insights to this event, who could it be?! Whakarongo mai to find out, e te iwi. 

MC Grammar is back again, with another deep-dive into the intricacies of our reo. This time, the crew take a look at the various ways to say "and".

Ko ngā kaupapa i puta mai i te Petihana Te Reo Māori i ngā tau rima tekau tau ki mua pēhea te tini! Ka whakarongo tātou ki ētahi o ngā kōrero i hopukina ai i taua rā i te 14 o Hepetema o te tau 1972. Ka kōrero a Erica rāo ko Te Puaheiri mō te hunga nāna anō te kaupapa, te hunga i tae atu ki Paremata, ngā hua i puta me ngā kaupapa e tohea tonutia o moroki nei.

While Paraone enjoys the sun in Fiji, Snowy and Erica recap a few previous "Iwi o te wiki" episodes - including Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Rangitāne and Kahungunu ki Wairarapa.

The Taringa team answer more pātai from you, our audience. These pātai turn into mini wānanga about some favourite kupu whakarite, whether or not a marae should be built in Australia and government agencies using waiata iwi for waiata tautoko.

Following the recent Ngāti Raukawa recording and release of "Te Oriori o Raukawa", this episode discusses what an Oriori is, what they contain and the kaupapa within them. Being the composer of this Oriori, we are priveleged to be able to hear Paraone unpacking his composition process. To listen to the full 27 minute waiata, go here: https://bit.ly/3vkWKEV

Listening through the archives again, we feature and discuss 3 items from the 1986 Polynesian Festival (now called Matatini) held at the Q.E. II Park, Ōtautahi (Christchurch).
