The simple question, “Does anyone want
to ride on Sunday?” started Wendy Davies
doing her bit to connect women around
the Bay.
The passionate eight-year local formed the
Golden Bay Women’s Mountain-biking and
Running Group after competing in the Spring
Challenge last year. That was when she fell
in love with mountain-biking.
“We have awesome places to ride in the
Bay. I realised I just wanted to ride my bike
all year,” Wendy laughed.
The purpose of the group is to be an
accessible way for local women of all ages
and abilities to link up and ride together,
enabling those smaller connections. “It can
be a challenge to find people of similar
ability to ride with if you don’t have a large
network.”
More than 90 women have joined the
group. “It’s a sport that women are interested
in trying out, and it’s easy to feel intimidated
by joining others who we feel may be faster
or fitter.” Wendy explained that by joining
the group one can see that there are many
other women in exactly the same situation.
“No one is left behind. You don’t have to
be a certain type of mountain-biker; it’s just
getting out there and having a go.”
Wendy wants to emphasise that the group
is community-driven. “I feel like people think
it’s my group, but it’s totally not. I do my best
to encourage women to create events and
not feel that they have to be skilled. I want to
see more women out there and more weekly
rides happening for all abilities.”
Group activities have increased over the

last two months. Very recently a maintenance
workshop was offered, providing a safe place
to learn something new. Mandy Richards
and four other experienced women also held
two skill sessions, coaching beginner and
intermediate riders in the week of 13 March.
Mandy, a mountain-biker for over 20 years,
said it was a no-brainer to help out with the
skill courses when Wendy asked her.
“It’s hugely inspiring and such a buzz to
see women in a really supportive environment
going out and having fun.” There are plans to
host more skill courses in the future. Search
for the group on Facebook or contact Wendy
at [email protected] for more
information.
“There’s no experience required to join
this group, just a bike and a helmet,” said
Wendy. “Anyone can jump on a bike and
ride it if they want to.”

THE GB WEEKLY, FRIDAY 24 MARCH 2017
In the face of concerns that Golden Bay
sports groups wouldn’t be able to use the new
recreation centre due to the grandstand court
case, council has opened part of the building.
On Monday 20 March, Tasman District
Council issued a partial Certificate of Public
Use (CPU) for the recreation centre. Sports
clubs can now access parts of the building.
In a statement released on Monday,
council said they can’t issue a full CPU as all
the car parks required by the building consent
under the Tasman Resource Management
plan are not available. The grandstand
occupies some of the proposed car parking.
Council said the partial CPU would allow
a portion of the Centre to open, reflecting
the proportion of car parks available. It is
concerned about lack of parking in the area,
which it says will lead to congestion at the
Centre.
The partial CPU allows access to the
toilets, changing rooms and the squash
courts. The rest of the centre, including the
kitchen, bar, function room, community
room, and stadium will remain closed until
a permanent CPU is issued.
The Golden Bay Grand Stand Community
Trust has taken the council and Heritage New
Zealand to the Environment Court over the
proposed removal of the grandstand. Until
the court case is resolved, the council said it
cannot comply with the parking requirements.
An Environment Court decision is expected
within six to eight weeks.
Council said the court case has had a flowon effect on the whole area, preventing the
use of the squash courts and limiting the use
of the fields by local sports clubs. With no
other car parking available and the winter
season fast approaching, council has been
looking at a compromise that would allow
sports clubs to operate.
Earlier, the parking issue for the Golden
Bay A&P show was solved by a local farmer
providing access to a paddock, while at the
Gala Dinner, cars were parked on the rugby
field, they said.
Last Tuesday, at the Golden Bay
Community Board meeting, TDC councillor
Paul Sangster outlined the consequences of
further delays in opening the facility.
“The squash club can’t play there; the
rugby club can’t put home games on and
netball has cancelled their registration. Local
groups are going to sign up over the Hill.”
In response to council’s move to issue the
partial CPU he said “It’s absolute nonsense.
It’s really quite sad. The building can be
opened.
“They’re trying to get the public to go
against Jill [Pearson] so that she’ll drop
the court case and let them demolish the
grandstand. At the end of the day we’re all
suffering. Who’s going to pay the bills if
groups don’t use the rec centre because we
have no certainty for home games?”
Mayor Kempthorne responded: “Until
the outcome of the court case is known the
full facility is not available for use. In issuing
the partial CPU the council has provided
certainty for the sports clubs using the fields
that the necessary facilities, while limited,
will be available for use. We, as with any
applicant for a building consent, have to
abide by the rules and to speculate beyond
that reason is not warranted or useful at this
stage.”
President of the Golden Bay Football Club,
Adge Tucker, said they had been struggling
with the prospect of a delayed opening while
completion of the recreation centre is so
“tantalisingly close”. He said it was great that
the CPU had been issued, especially given
that most of the club is made up of children.

For the second year in
a row, 16 members of the
Takaka Citizens’ Band have
held a weekend camp at
Happisam Lodge in the
Anatoki Valley. Visiting guest
conductor Daniel Mead, from
Nelson, helped the band
perfect eight new pieces of
music between Friday night
and Sunday morning this past
weekend.
But it was not all work.
Anatoki Salmon hosted
the group for dinner on
Saturday night, and eight
band members overnighted
at Happisams Lodge and
in private caravans,
accompanied by “fabulous“
food, campfires, cards and
all-night yarning.
Band member and camp
organiser Nick Farr felt the
weekend was an outstanding
success. He said that the
lodge upgrade and new
facilities, and the general
hospitality of the community
was outstanding, and that
the bonus of the weekend
was learning so much new
material, all to become part of
the famous Takaka Citizens’
Band repertoire.
On Sunday afternoon, the
band presented a community
concert to showcase their
new music.

“The sooner things could be fully sorted out the better.
It’s still regrettable to have the shadow of conflict hanging
over what will hopefully become the vision of what
everyone’s been working towards.”
Gary Balck, the president of the Golden Bay Squash
Club, said he was “ecstatic” to hear of the CPU, though
he still regarded it as “a bit of a cop out.” He said he
was “stoked” to hear they could use the courts, as their
competitive season starts soon and the club had been asking
council to move forward.
“We’ve been buzzing about the new rec centre for years.
They opened it and then they had to close it. We got one

day of squash in. That was gutting.” Though, it was, he said,
“a whole lot better than nothing.”
Golden Bay Grand Stand Community Trust trustee Jill
Pearson said it was “absolutely fabulous” that the sports
groups could use the facilities.
“It’s never been rec centre versus the grandstand; the
two can co-exist. It’s always been ‘hang on, there’s no
elevated seating in this new facility and look what we
already have,” she said.
“From the information on the website the CPU is about
ensuring an unfinished building is safe. I don’t understand
how car parking can affect the safety of people in the
building,” she added.

Lessons learned from recordbreaking whale stranding
NEWS IN BRIEF
My name is Moana
Moana Maniapoto will play at The Mussel Inn. Photo: Submitted.
DOC, iwi, Project Jonah and local volunteers were confronted by a record number of stranded whales.
Beach clean-ups regularly remove small items of rubbish
from Golden Bay’s foreshore, but how does a community
deal with hundreds of dead pilot whales?
That was the question that Department of Conservation
(DOC) Takaka operations manager Andrew Lamason says
he faced after February’s record-breaking mass stranding
(GBW, 17 February).
“We ended up with 220 carcasses to deal with.”
Ironically, the location of the stranding is helpful when
it comes to coping with the fallout; Andrew says that the
deserted expanse of the Farewell Spit nature reserve provides
disposal options unthinkable in any other part of the Bay.
Those options include simply leaving the carcasses close to
the high tide mark, a solution that has some merit, according
to Andrew. “The intertidal zone encompasses two ecosystems
– marine and terrestrial – that between them clean up pretty
efficiently.”
One problem is that dead beached whales don’t tend to
stay where they strand. Consequently, carcasses need to be
tethered, or contained, or moved well above the splash zone.
“We have tried tying up whales near the high tide mark, but
ended up with lots of tangled rope.”
DOC has considered enclosing the recent strandings. “We
thought about putting a fence up but we need to get past,
and it was in the public access area, so that was ruled out.”
In spite of best efforts, there were some escapees, Andrew
said. “One ended up on Tahunanui Beach and there is still
one in the lagoon at Puponga.”
In the end, DOC resorted to the tried and tested method of
moving the carcasses to the dunes at the back of the beach.
The operation was simpler than anticipated, says Andrew.
“Sollys came down with two diggers and two dumpers and

moved the lot in one tide.”
The cultural significance of whales to iwi means that the
creatures have to be handled with sensitivity throughout, and
Andrew says that DOC works closely with manawhenua to
ensure this happens. “We have a very strong understanding
with iwi. People from Ngati Tama came from Nelson to
perform a karakia. There’s regionwide support from iwi.”
Kaumata John Ward-Holmes praised DOC’s efforts and
approach. “They managed it very well. They liaised with us
during the whole process; we were in contact with them all
the time.”
Respecting iwi’s spiritual connection with the animals
also means that scientific researchers have to follow strict
protocols, says Andrew. “Massey University took 20 dorsal
fins to test for radio-tracker adhesion. But when they finish
their research, the fins will be returned to be buried with
the carcasses.”
The whales’ bodies will take a long time to fully decompose
in the duneland environment. “Decay may take years because
there is such a heavy oil content – it’s like dumping a whole
lot of crude oil.” But Andrew says the public shouldn’t be
affected. “They were moved up to Stockyard Point where
there are no wetlands or significant vegetation.”
The sheer number of whales that came ashore in February
overwhelmed the combined resources of DOC, iwi, Project
Jonah and public volunteers. Andrew says that lessons were
learned from the biggest refloat ever.
“We could have done better initially, but the scale pushed
us to our limits; we didn’t get it right on the first day so we
ended up with not enough experienced people for the second
shift. We will learn from this.”

Project De-Vine working bee
A “clearing the pest vines out of Golden Bay and
around Abel Tasman National Park” working bee will be
held at 59 Nyhane Drive, Ligar Bay on Saturday 1 April
(if wet – to be advised), meeting at 9.30am; finishing
about 1.30pm.
This is the second working bee of the Ligar Bay-to-Tata
phase of Project De-Vine’s work. Work will take place in
the TDC reserve and on various properties around it and
will knock the re-seeding. It will also help the Project
De-Vine team who will carry out pest vine control work
in the Ligar Bay to Wainui Hill properties over the next
three months with a grant that is not enough to carry out
full sweeps of each property. Landowners are asked to
carry out as much control work themselves to help the
funded work go as far as possible.
Please bring sturdy shoes, gloves and secateurs, loppers
or retractable hand saws, drinking water. Enquiries: phone

Takaka Public Library
Help! We are looking for information about where the
Takaka Public Library was located between 1930 (when we
believe it was located in the small building where the Pioneer
Memorial now is) and 1947 when it opened in the front office
of the council building.
We are also after a photograph of either what is now the
Organic Shop or what is now Soul Shoes. We have two
plaques ready to go up on these buildings but only one
photograph between the two. The buildings were erected
sometime after 1914 and the earliest photograph we can find
would be ideal. Please, if you can help with either of these
subjects, contact me on 525 8086.

Takaka FLAG vs the public
This whole Takaka FLAG fiasco boils down to a simple
point of contention — the public obviously is not convinced
that a dozen local farmers’ desire to increase their irrigation,
is sufficient reason for putting internationally significant Te
Waikoropupu Springs at any risk whatsoever. Those irrigators
on the waiting list (who already have substantial water takes)
will simply have to invest in water storage, as other, more
responsible, civic-minded, and forward-looking farmers have
already done in the Bay.
FLAG’s and Tasman District Council’s irritating and
ongoing pretence that the public must accept increased
water allocations in order for FLAG to put into place longoverdue and necessary cease-take rules, is shameful. TDC
and FLAG are insulting the public’s intelligence and trying
our patience, and we don’t much appreciate that, considering
that the public is forced to fund this FLAG fiasco through our
tax dollars.
Gina Wilson
A response to TDC
What the nameless TDC bureaucrat should have said last
week in response to the many letters stating the community’s
opposition to FLAG’s decisions, was that the public’s
wishes were heard loudly and clearly and that FLAG would
undoubtedly be making some major changes in their final
report, to reflect the valid critiques of the community and the
independent, outside experts.
Instead, TDC predictably pulls out its trite, pro forma
recitation about how FLAG is really protecting Te Waikoropupū
Springs. Oh, sure. This “protection” includes allowing nitrate
levels to increase and the visibility levels to decrease. The
approximately 71 per cent increase in water allocations from
the catchment is sloughed off as “some extra water allocation”
with TDC’s convoluted attempt to show that the 71 per cent
increase isn’t all that significant. Right.
Finally we were lectured about how FLAG empowers the
community. Really? We were kept out of the meetings for over
2½ years, and many of the notes are still unavailable (the most
controversial meetings). We were told that FLAG’s viewpoints
were “remarkably similar to those of the community,” which
does not explain the overwhelming opposition to FLAG’s
decisions that was so dramatically captured by Jo Richards’
photo in The GB Weekly (17 March).
FLAG could easily require the cease-takes they are touting,
without risk to the springs by increased water allocations, but
it is rather obvious that TDC, its “science” partner DairyNZ,
and FLAG have an agenda that goes against the community’s
wishes. The photo says it all.
Craig Wilson
FLAG and farming
John Lee asked if dairying is the most efficient use for the
land? No it is not because in this climate and the Takaka
valleys it would be much better to grow cash-crops. From rice
to sunflower, wheat, oats, rye and even certain varieties of
soy would grow— as well as potatoes, hemp, flax, sugar-beet
etc and of course many different fruit and nuts.
If that would be done organically, with our own Golden
Bay organic/dynamic farm co-operative to market the
4
produce, then farmers of this valley would make more profit.
This way would also benefit their land, environment, water
and the people, by eating organic. However, the farmer would
do themselves and us a big favour if they would understand
and change. It would be great.
Ursus - Black Bear
FLAG and TDC
Once more another example that we would be much better
off having our own Golden Bay County Council back and
not these experts from over the Hill who are treating us as
their colony to exploit us and the environment. Spending a
lot of our rates, many for their bureaucracy and manipulation,
instead of having a real and proper democratic consultation
and best decision-making process where the locals find for
themselves the best solution for Golden Bay. We could do so
much better and cheaper, with non-bureaucracy from TDC.

Kevin Moran
Save Our Springs
In my letter of 30 December 2016, I undertook to initiate
the Save Our Springs campaign. Since then I have done my
best to raise awareness of the threat to Te Waikoropupū
Springs from increased irrigation proposals by TDC and
to unite the community under one banner in its defence.
Our campaign has had great success, building a strong
membership, and helping generate 165 responses to the TDC
FLAG Summary Report and an attendance of around 400 at
the Open Day.
Our issue now has the attention of the whole nation, and
Greenpeace has also come to our aid. Our community has
sent a clear message to the FLAG that its current reckless
proposal is against its will. However, there is still much
work to be done before we can be sure that most TDC
councillors will act in the public interest and keep nitrate
pollution and river flows well within safe limits. To do this,
we must build membership quickly over the Hill in Tasman
to influence them, and demand from the Mayor that FLAG’s
recommendations pass a public vote.
My initiation work is done, and regrettably I cannot
continue in a leadership role. I must now leave for England,
although I will continue to support you from afar as best I can.
Somebody local must quickly take up our banner and lead
us. To apply, or simply join us, please email saveoursprings@
yahoo.com. I bid you farewell until I return home again.

Recreation Park
Let’s assume for planning purposes that the ratio of car
parks to recreation park users (including spectators of course)
is one car park: four users. Right now there are at least 190
car parks already on-site, not counting the 120 parks on the
A&P Association land. 190 x 4 = 760. It is unusual to have
an event or events involving more than 760 people at one
time. An obvious exception is the A&P Show which has an
alternative traffic management plan.
Come on TDC, you’ve already got the accessible car parks
in a great position right next to the main entrance. Let us all
use the NBS stadium and the function room, as well as the
squash courts and changing rooms — or provide a plausible
reason for not doing so. What is the building work affecting
the use of the stadium and function room?
Hazel Pearson
Response from Tasman District Council: There is currently
sufficient car parking on-site to meet the requirements of the
building consent and the Tasman Resource Management Plan
to enable the toilet and changing facilities and the squash
courts in the new Rec Park Centre to be used, but there is
insufficient car parking on-site to enable the whole complex
to be used.

Luminous beings
Luminate festival was so special and intergenerational, that
I decided to write about it.
It was all about love, arts, Mother Earth, light and opened
hearts. We practised group meditations, percussions, selfexpression and creation.
We talked about awareness, counsciousness, and
explored our own wildness. We experienced connection,
transformation, animal protection, and high vibrations.
We felt the lovely energy, of the fire ceremony, of
sisterhood and brotherhood living in harmony, feeling all
the beauty, of this ecological community, made only with
authenticity.
All these days have been full of clearing, releasing, healing,
chanting, sharing, caring, needed for all these luminous
beings. This experience touched our souls; it was beautiful,

takes for a car to stop when travelling at different speeds.
Tasman District Council Road Safety Co-ordinator
Krista Hobday says: “The demonstrations show that our
‘people’ (which are cardboard cut-outs) have no chance
if a car is travelling at 60kmph when the driver sees them
and begins to brake. That’s important for the children to
realise the danger an approaching car can pose to them.
“For grown-ups, it’s also a sobering way to show the
damage they could do to a child if they are travelling
too fast and need to stop quickly. At 60kmph there’s just
no way they can stop in time to avoid injuring or killing
someone. At 40kmph, however, the car is able to stop
in time – and that’s why we encourage motorists to slow
down, particularly around schools.”

The Nelson Fringe Festival’s programme has now been
launched. Local Golden Bay performers are appearing
with two shows from our region highlighted on the festival
programme.
The festival, which runs from 29 April until 7 May, has
become a mainstay of the Nelson performing arts scene and
this year features performances by actors from as far afield
as South Africa and Australia.
Nelson Fringe Festival Director Laura Irish says, “We are
excited to be welcoming such a wide range of local talent to
the festival. Golden Bay really does punch above its weight
in terms of artistic output, and we’re anticipating that the
community will be turning out in force to support their
homegrown talent. We’re sure that Golden Bay residents will
be snapping up our $12 tickets; they’re available online.”
The two shows couldn’t be more different. Evolution
Revolution, a show being put on by local youth, involves
physical theatre and uses Māori mythology to depict
humankind’s evolution from the beginning of time and space.
In contrast, Solitude - The Secret Life of Annie Chaffey,
performed by Martine Baanvinger of Takaka’s DramaLab, tells
the story of Anne Chaffey, who in 1913 entered the remote
mountains of Kahurangi National Park to live a hidden life
with her lover Henry Chaffey.
Martine Baanvinger says of her show, “It’s an old story from
a new perspective. We’re offering you a peek inside Asbestos
Cottage where Annie lived a life of solitude ... where Queen
Vicky and Aunt Daisy come to the rescue ... where jam and
scones are served in Victorian dresses and the gun is always
within reach. Bang! Woodhen for dinner.”

Collingwood shows promise in pre-season friendly
Not too much to ponder: Collingwood coach Graeme Miller is

Collingwood’s rugby champions gave their home
supporters something to cheer about in last Saturday’s preseason friendly.
The hosts used the game as an opportunity to test their
match fitness against a strong Nelson side before beginning
the defence of their Senior B title. Despite his team’s defeat,
Collingwood coach Graeme Miller was encouraged by what
he saw. “If we continue to play in the same style we will be
competitive.”
There was plenty of heat in this high-tempo skirmish; with
the temperature hovering around 25°C, conditions were the
polar opposite of those at last year’s midwinter mud-battle
that saw Collingwood crowned champions. Maybe the soiled
shirts and shorts from that epic final proved impossible to
clean, or perhaps they were framed and are now hanging
in hallways up and down the Aorere Valley; whatever the
explanation, the old kit has been replaced by a brand new
black and gold stripe, courtesy of sponsors Westhaven
Marketing and Southfuels.
The game was played at a searing pace with frequent
attacking runs and plenty of crunching tackles. The Nelson
team was billed as a blend of their A and B squads, but it
was more A- than B+, thanks to some very accomplished
young players who passed the ball quickly and accurately
and ran with speed and penetration. The visitors also had a
distinct mass advantage, especially in the front row; two of
the super-heavyweight battering-ram forwards could only be
halted by a co-ordinated group tackle. It was like watching a
pack of coyotes trying to bring down a buffalo.
Given that many of the Nelson side normally play in a
higher division, Collingwood could be forgiven for failing
to come out on top, but the underdogs almost took the lead;
with five minutes on the clock, the home side was awarded a
penalty – a just reward for their positive play. It was the first of
many such infringements called – a consequence of a recent
rule-change regarding the interpretation of “high” tackles.
Collingwood failed to convert the early chance but
continued to pressure the opposition and occupy their
territory. It took a further 10 minutes before the away side
fully ventured into the Collingwood half, but a lightningquick attack involving several slick passes and some fancy
footwork ended with the visitors scoring a try under the
posts. A carbon copy followed some five minutes later but,
uncowed, Collingwood replied almost immediately with one
of their own. The score-line escalated rapidly; Nelson added
a further five points to their tally with a wonderful sweeping
move straight out of a 40-yard scrum, but it was tit-for-tat as
the home side popped the ball down between the opposition
posts to make the half-time score something like 12-21 (as
no official score was being kept).
When play resumed, it was clear that the visitors had
replaced some of their A-team stars with lesser lights from
the B side. The changes evened up the contest and there was
little addition to the score, which ended at 12-24. It seemed
that the heat had finally got to everyone on the pitch.
Speaking after the match, Graeme was happy to take the
positives.
“We tackled well; they had a lot of ball and they ran at us,
but we stopped them before they got too much momentum.
Our defence was pretty sound – they kept talking to each
other.”
The coach is optimistic about the challenge ahead and
is pleased to have a healthy pool of players. “We’ve got a
squad of 23 this year. We’ve lost some, but two young Takaka
players have joined us.”
Another reason to be cheerful, he says, is the back-room
support the team receives from physios and personal trainers.
“We’ve got extra help with Aaron and Michelle [PhysEx] and
Renee [Bay Fitness]. We’ve already had seven weeks’ strength
training with Renee.”
Graeme believes Collingwood’s rivals will be looking to
get one over the champions, but he is confident early home
advantage will help his team. “You become a bit of a target
for other teams trying to tip us over, but we’ve got two home
games in the first round – that’s a good start.”

Two members of the
Golden Bay Choir, Nigel
Mountfort and Robin Keown,
have recently returned
from a lifetime highlight—
performing with the Nelson
Civic Choir at Carnegie Hall
in New York.
On 15 January they sang
in a moving performance
commemorating the 1966
Welsh mining disaster of
Aberfan, when a mountain
of mine waste engulfed a
primary school and killed
116 children and 28 adults.
The organisers of
Distinguished Concerts
International New York’s
(DCINY) annual event had
previously accepted the choir
from a video audition made
last year in Nelson singing
the controversial piece The
Armed Man, composed by
Welshman Karl Jenkins.
“The composer had heard
our rendition of the work and
was very impressed,” says
Robin. “Actually, the Nelson
Civic Choir was the only
choir in New Zealand to go,”
adds Nigel.
This year the DCINY
annual concert featured the
music of this world-renowned
modern choral composer,
who was commissioned to
commemorate the 50-year
anniversary of the Aberfan
tragedy. The Carnegie Hall
performance of the resulting
composition,Cantata
Memoria: For the Children,
was the first outside Wales
and was sung in nine different
languages. All of it had to
be learned by heart. “It was
challenging,” admits Robin.
The composition was
presented in two distinct
sections. The first part, the
Requiem, dealt with the
immediate aftermath of the
tragedy and the second,
Cantata Memoria conveyed
an uplifting message of
hope, light and celebration
of childhood. A full orchestra
accompanied 250 singers
from all over the world.
Both works also featured
a film coinciding with the

music. Footage of the tiny coffins at the
funerals were accompanied by one parent’s
bitter denouncement: “Buried alive by the
National Coal Board.”
“It’s a highly emotional piece,” says Nigel.
“The audience were in tears. They gave us
a standing ovation at the end.” Robin felt
the power of being immersed in so many
different languages, particularly that of the
Welsh Choir.
The performance received rave reviews for
the choirs’ virtuosity and the overwhelming
audience response. “It had that sense of
hope and it ended on a theme of light,” says
Robin. “So it was actually uplifting even
though it was so sad.” Both singers agreed
the composer had a gift for depicting tragic
events but also for the ability to lift spirits
through his music.
The experience continues to resonate for
them both, particularly in relation to similar
tragedies such as Christchurch’s earthquake.
Robin also visited the 9/11 Ground Zero
whilst in New York. “It was poignant and
very sobering,” she says. “Loss is a universal
thing, and adjusting to loss. Music and

Nelson Civic Choir had also let the Pike River
families know they would be singing for them
at Carnegie Hall.
In mid-October the choir will perform
this work again in the newly refurbished
Nelson School of Music, followed by another
performance at the Michael Fowler Centre
in Wellington, hosted by the DCINY, with
hopes the composer might also attend.
“Music and singing with other people is
an uplifting experience, and it can actually
get people through their feeling of sadness,”
says Nigel. “The waves of the emotions of the
music — it’s therapy, it’s very healing. We’d
like to make an invitation to other people
to share that and come and join our choir.”
“We are not auditioned,” says Robin.
“We just have a love of music in the choral
tradition. There are no other requirements.”
“And a little bit of a commitment,” laughs
Nigel.
