Ngoi also said she likened the poi, which is like the fantail that flies through the forest, to Maori youth trying to find their way in the concrete jungle of the Pakeha.
Just like the fantail which has to flit between trees and leaves, Maori youth have to flit between skyscrapers, both concrete and cultural, and still search for identity. He told her he could do it by giving them their language and culture through the medium they were comfortable with.
Dalvanius was playing at nearby Ruatoria, in between Maori language studies at Wellington Polytech: "I went to visit her and we hit it off, " he said. We were all saddened by death of Dalvanius on the 3rd of October, The whole Poi-E concept was born in after linguist Ngoi Pewhairangi asked musician Maui Dalvanius Prime how he would teach the younger generation to be proud of being Maori and Kiwi.
Dalvanius decided Poi-E was about marketing the Maori language: "I told Ngoi of my personal life experience of growing up in Patea in an environment void of any indigenous heroes or icons, Maori or Kiwi. She replied, Perry Como and Frank Sinatra. I then asked her, what did all these singers and stars have in common? For me, their entire persona - fact and fiction - was a perfectly managed marketing exercise.
Apart from a calculated urban consumer-oriented publicity campaign, Poi-E's strength was it's rural roots, the promotion of Te Reo Maori, the Maori language and Kiwi culture.
Long after her and I have left our earthly bodies, the language - via our anthem - will live on from generation to generation. I said it is a hybrid of our rural roots and urban influences. This sound was a product of the urban drift when our rural jobs were lost and she agreed with me. Dalvanius again; "When we wrote the musical it was about what happens to a group of people who leave Patea, what happens to them when they go into the urban environment and try and make a living.
Looking at the lyrics and translations they were all about identity and Maori seeking their heritage. The works had opened in , canning meat for export. It started freezing meat in When "The Works" closed in there was huge social disruption, and young Maori people had to leave their close-knit marae and head for the cities to find work. Some could not cope with the loss of communal support and were destroyed by prostitution and drugs.
The Poi-E musical tells this story, and how the Patea community coped with the problem. Read the full story of Poi-E: the Musical on Dalvanius's own web site.
