‘Maori Melodies’ by Ann Holmes zodiac EPZ 119 7in 45 EP Ann Holmes was born in Australia. She began as a serious student of the piano and finished up by abandoning all in favour of a childhood love for the wurlitzer theatre organ. She is well known to Aucklanders for her several years as organist at the Civic Theatre, and thanks to regular appearances on radio her name and playing has become known to many more. In this record Ann Holmes takes to the console of a Gulbransen organ and plays a most sparkling selection of Maori songs. It is always encouraging when Pakeha musicians take Maori music and give it a new dimension, increasing its appeal for yet another section of public. If you like organ music you will enjoy this record. If you like modern Maori songs then the record will doubly appeal.
