Conceived by New Zealand pianist Sharon Joy Vogan, the project Suite Aotearoa presents ten new works by New Zealand composers, five of which are for piano solo, while the others feature taonga pūoro (Māori traditional instruments) alongside the piano. Horomona Horo (Ngāpuhi, Taranaki, Ngāti Porou), a specialist in taonga pūoro performance, collaborated with the five composers. His own solo works for taonga pūoro open and close the new collection, while the album concludes with an extended piano work from 2005, the lovely lullaby Oriori by David Hamilton.
