Inia Te Wiata was not just an amazing Maori singer, he was also an incredible carver. Here he is at work in his Pouihi in the basement carpark of New Zealand House in London, England. The finished Pouihi was erected in 1972, a year after Inia died. It had taken him 7 years to carve, in recognition of the support that the New Zealand people had given him throughout his career. The Pouihi features many new ideas, breaking away from traditional Maori carving styles while at the same time honouring the past masters. These images come from a documentary film called "Every Bend A Power". created by Inia's wife, Beryl Te Wiata. Copyrite to her and the Alexander Turnbull Library and National LIbrary.. The songs come from his wonderful LP, "Waiata Maori". Purchase the compilation "Just Call Me Happy" published by the National Library of New Zealand. His wife, Beryl Te Wiata, tells a story in her book, "Most Happy Fella", about the circumstances behind the recording of this LP. "Tony Vercoe wrote and asked Happy whether he could, while playing Porgy and Bess in Sydney, get members of the cast to learn some new arrangements of Maori songs, rehearse them well and get the whole thing to a high standard in preparation for an LP. This Happy did, and later wrote to Tony, "Some of the cast couldn't read a note of music and the challenge for them was a serious one. I sat up till four and five each morning writing out parts for the songs for the twenty-four singers and then called rehearsals from ten am to one pm, sometimes from ten till two, and this happened for three to four days a week. I was adamant about getting them to look upon this as a professional company making a record of Maori songs, not just another Maori group doing so." The Maoris who sang on the recording were used to taking up a harmony in a song, any harmony they fancied, and either keeping to that one or moving naturally and easily to others just as the mood took them. It threw them out of step, therefore, to be presented with pieces of music to which they must adhere. Happy had worked hard to get a balance of the different voices by writing out the parts and wished that balance to be maintained throughout. In 1973 Waiata Maori was rewarded with the presentation of a golden disc, the first LP of Maori music ever to have achieved this goal. Queen Te Atairangikaahu graciously attended the function, having first been formally welcomed by members of the Arawa tribe. The first time a member of the Maori royal family had ever set foot on the Arawa marae."
