The action song is a modern addition to Maori performing arts, pioneered in the early twentieth century by Sir Apirana Ngata. Almost a century after it first appeared, the waiata kori (action song) is flourishing among kapa haka groups up and down Aotearoa. Maori action songs is the classic introduction to this distinctive art form- ideal for teachers, groups or individuals. This new, totally revised edition presents a concise introduction to the important elements of the songs, and outlines in simple terms 30 songs for different occasions with words, music and actions described in text and diagrams.
