Some ‘Dos’ DO start your concert on time. There is NO such thing as ‘Maori time’ when the audience is waiting. Maori concert groups are ambassadors to their race. The audience are their guests. It is bad manners to keep guests waiting. DO ensure that everyone knows the item properly before performing it, otherwise delete it from the programme. DO remember that the success of any concert is in direct proportion to the amount of preparation and care put into its rehearsal. An intelligently explained well-executed concert promotes interest in, and appreciation of, things Maori and therefore is yet another way of engendering better relations and understanding between Maori and Pakeha in New Zealand.
