Ariana Tikao
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Ariana Tikao is a renowned practitioner and composer of taonga puoro, Māori traditional instruments. She is a New Zealand Arts Laureate who has gained recognition as a soloist with Aotearoa's principal orchestras and chamber groups such as Stroma and the New Zealand String Quartet.
Her arts practice is rooted in her South Island Māori identity, with a palpable connection to place and ancestral narratives. Ariana’s live performances move between realms, beyond time, & enable audiences to feel like they are being “bundled up in a big feather cloak & transported to another world”.
Ariana will perform a programme of vocal & taonga puoro music, both solo, & accompanied by members of the London-based Rothko Collective, including creative director & violist Dominic Stokes. They will perform some new works composed by Karl Sölve Steven (NZ/Sweden), as well as music by Luka Venter, Muriwai (Ariana Tikao & Bob Bickerton), multi-media works by Good Company Arts, & some improvisations.
Ariana Tikao started performing in 1993 with the folk group Pounamu; has released three solo albums: Whaea (2002), Tuia (2008), and From Dust to Light (2012); and has been involved with many collaborative projects, including art music quartet Tararua, and duo Muriwai. She also works in experimental music in gallery spaces and site specific locations, collaborating and improvising with various artists particularly in the Christchurch and Wellington music scenes.
