Kiwi Show Homage
5 out of 5 stars

As stated on the back cover…“The ‘A & P Show’, is my homage to this quintessentially “Kiwi” occasion, capturing the hustle and bustle of a typical show with its Marching Bands, and perhaps a couple of barnyard critters included for good measure. The last piece in the Suite is my rendition of that gorgeous NZ tune ‘Po Atarau’. This melody, recognized worldwide*, and I believe it serves as a most fitting finale to ‘The New Zealand Suite’. I truly hope you appreciate the entire piece!!” *(as ‘Now Is The Hour’)
