This Matariki, listen to enchanting stories of each star in the Matariki cluster, below in both Te Reo Māori and English. Each beautiful recording in this podcast depicts the significance each star has over our wellbeing and environment and is brought to life with an accompaniment of bespoke sounds from Aotearoa’s forests, birds and water as well as Māori instruments.
