Pese Muamua means ‘song number one’. The choir will call ‘mua mua mua’— let's begin, let's begin, let's begin — the words which are used in traditional Samoan singing to introduce a set of songs. This symbolises the beginning of all the ‘songs’ Auckland Choral will sing in 2010. A wonderful, varied one-hour free concert follows with excerpts from Brahms's Requiem, Bach's B minor Mass and even a Sing Along ‘Hallelujah’ from the Messiah. Concert highlights include Dean Sky Lucas, Australia's finest counter tenor, David Hamilton's Dance Song to the Creator and Bach’s sparkling Brandenburg Concerto No. 4.
