[10Mus] Lorde NZ Music Research Project


[10Mus] Performance Evaluation (Moana, How Far I'll Go)

The song we chose to do for our group performance was How Far I'll Go from the movie Moana.

1) Were you happy with your performance?
Yes, I think that our performance was good because we put all of our efforts into the song and it turned out good.

2) How did you feel performing in front of an audience?
I felt shaky and nervous when we were about to perform but as we kept going with the song, the nervousness went away.

3) What was your final grade and were you happy with it? My final grade was an excellence, which was better than I expected, I thought we were going to get a merit because of the minor mistakes that we did throughout the song.

4) How could you have improved your performance?
We could fix up a few mistakes but overall it was decent.

Maori Music for a Modern Audience

Maori Music for a Modern Audience
Wairua - Maimoa
This is a pop style music, lots of people perform in the song. Their dreams help inspire them to create the song. I liked the music because it has alot of pop instruments used in the music to create a good pop song. I liked the video because neveryone was enjoying themselves.

Lyrics:
The essence of soul and spirit tingles the skinAn essence that isn't truly felt until one opens up
Once confronted by internal debate, a source of life and inspiration springs within youA spring-well of instinct and a soul that is completely yours
[Chorus]It is your SPIRIT - may it spread around the worldIt is your SOUL - let it fly and soarFilled with instinct and inspiration that can guide you to your full potential
A little wairua is better than none at all, be it small or large - it is still a gift
Although it may not be tangible, it's a connection blind to the naked eye
Once confronted by internal debate, a source of life and inspiration springs within youA spring-well of life and soul that is completely yours
It is your SPIRIT - may it spread around the worldIt is your SOUL - let it fly and soarA subtle means of inspiration and spiritual flow that can guide you to your full potential
Stomp clap the beat the beat clap, to the pound pound clap, the beat the beat CLAP!
Stand up and let your wairua guide you!
