by Tania M. Ka'ai. 'Pewhairangi, Te Kumeroa Ngoi', from the Dictionary of New Zealand Biography. Te Ara - the Encyclopedia of New Zealand, updated 7-Jan-2014
Excerpt:
Ngoi Pewhairangi herself composed many songs, such as ‘Kia kaha nga iwi’, ‘Ka noho au’ and ‘Whakarongo’. Many were written for specific events, including the visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1983, when she was responsible for the organisation of the official welcome. She was renowned for her spontaneity in writing compositions for various people. Of these songs, ‘E Ipo’, recorded by Prince Tui Teka, and ‘Poi E’, by Dalvanius Prime and the Patea Maori Club, are best known. They earned gold and platinum records for selling, respectively, 7,500 and 15,000 copies.

The Patea Māori Club
The Patea Māori Club was an established Māori cultural performance group, touring the country, competing in kapa haka events, recording waiata and acting and singing in television dramas for many years before ‘Poi E’ made them famous in 1984.
Initially set up in 1967 as the Patea Methodist Maori Club by Reverend Naapi Waaka, the group became skilled in poi, action song, haka and stage performance generally. There was an over-arching philosophy that the group would help to develop leadership talents, preserve Te Reo Māori, speech-making and traditional arts and crafts. In addition to their New Zealand activities, 12 members toured New Guinea in 1974, two members went as part of a 40-person group to China in 1979 and in 1980 four members toured with a group to Hong Kong.
The group’s name was changed to the Patea Māori Club in 1980 and the years 1981-82, when Maui Dalvanius Prime was musical director, saw the club move in a more modern musical direction, culminating in the release of ‘Poi E’, composed by Dalvanius and Ngoi Pēwhairangi, in 1984.
‘Poi E’ reached No1 on the pop charts and stayed there for four weeks out of a total of 22 weeks on the charts. The song on the B-side, “Aku Raukura”, was also popular, reaching No 10 in a 12-week stay on the charts.
In 1985 The Patea Māori Club were made NZ Ambassadors and travelled to the UK, where they performed at the Royal Gala before Queen Elizabeth II. British magazine New Musical Express named ‘Poi E’ its single of the week.
The Patea Māori Club also played the London Palladium and the Edinburgh Festival, and in 1986 they toured the US. Back home, in 1987 they performed at the Te Maori Exhibition in Auckland and various festivals and formal engagements.
The group won Best Polynesian Album in the 1984 NZ Music Awards and Best Group in the New Zealand Entertainer of the Year Awards. In 1994 the original ‘Poi E’ went Gold and the group were awarded the Golden Scroll Award in the 1994 Entertainer of the Year Awards. They were awarded the Music Industry Award at the 2009 New Zealand Maori Music Awards.
“Poi E, The Musical” had its world premiere in New Plymouth in 1996 and was revived in 1999 for an 11-day season at the Easter Show and Aotea Centre in Auckland.
In 1996, in London, the group played sell-out concerts at the Commonwealth Institute, Queen Elizabeth II Hall on South Bank, The Beck Theatre and starred at the Emporium in a benefit concert for Nelson Mandela televised by Channel 4. In seven days the group made five TV appearances including TVAM, Good Morning Britain (twice in one week) and Blue Peter. They also visited the House Of Commons, hosted by the then Labour Leader Neil Kinnock.
On tour in America they played in New York, Washington DC, the Te Maori exhibition in St Louis and a series of concerts in Los Angeles including Disneyland. Dalvanius told Billboard magazine: "The highlight of our tour has been the concert supporting The Violent Femmes at Irving Plaza, New York."
For the past 33 years, Patea Māori Club has been performing at major events to represent New Zealand in the world, like the Tourism Expo in Guangzhou, China in 2011 and the Maori Tourism Initiative in Sydney in 2014. In 2005 they were selected by the New Zealand Government to represent New Zealand at the World Expo in Aichi, Japan and to perform in Seoul, South Korea. They also still perform regularly at events around New Zealand, like the 2015 Wellington Sevens Tournament. Always loyal to their hometown Patea, the group organises and performs at a musical event every Waitangi Day (February 6) called PaePae in the Park – an event which has become a day-long festival of entertainment, food and market stalls, aimed at encouraging and supporting the community’s youth.
And they still practice their performance every Monday at their main street Patea clubrooms.

Barletta Prime - singer, sister of Dalvanius Prime
Of Ngāpuhi and Ngā Rauru descent, Barletta Prime is Dalvanius’s Prime’s sister. At the age of 16, Barletta took her band, The Hymarkies, to Vietnam, Bangkok and Asia, playing to the troops. In 1973, after 18 months in Asia, she went to Sydney and teamed up with her brother Dalvanius as a singer in The Fascinations.
Barletta toured with Dalvanius through Australia, Asia and USA with many top soul performers such as Tina Turner, Isaac Hayes, Dionne Warwick, The Pointer Sisters, Eartha Kitt. Dalvanius and The Fascinations were at the top of the Australian entertainment scene when they debuted the opening series of concerts at the Sydney Opera House, supporting Petula Clark. In 1979 Dalvanius and Barletta came back to New Zealand to care for their ailing mother. Barletta stayed in Patea ever since and was an original member of The Patea Maori Club performance of ‘Poi E’.
Barletta appears as herself in interviews in POI E and she is played by Summer Mokomoko in the performance sequence.

In New Zealand he gained work as an editor on a run of TV shows, from current affairs and Anzac Day ceremonies, to the Mike King-presented Treaty series Lost in Translation.
Behse also holds an MA in European Audio-visual Management from Spain’s Media Business School. He began exercising his producer muscles with The Flight of the Hookioi (2009), which recreated the 19th Century journey of two Māori rangatira to Austria. Hookioi director Tearepa Kahi was nominated for Best Director at the 2010 Qantas Awards.
Hookioi marked the first of many explorations of Te Ao Māori for Behse. His next film, Allan Baldwin: In Frame (2011) profiled a photographer’s work recording tā moko on Māori kuia. Also directed by Kahi, the documentary was awarded at the 2013 Wairoa Māori Film Festival and Tahiti's FIFO documentary festival.

The documentary Ever The Land premiered at the 2015 NZ International Film Festival, and has travelled to festivals in Vancouver, Hawaii and New York. Behse teamed up with another German-Kiwi — director Sarah Grohnert — to chronicle an architectural and cultural journey towards realising a Tūhoe HQ in Taneatua. The Ngāi Tūhoe grand design — a collaboration between iwi and architects Jasmax — aimed to embody the people's self-determination, and become Aotearoa’s first completely sustainable “living building”.
