Te Pito o TeHenua  
for solo piano and electronic tape
tepitootehenua  
The title of this piece is also the original name for Rapa Nui, or Easter Island. The text is based on erroneous translations of the rongorongo script- the heiroglyphic language of the native people. I think the story of this place is absolutely fascinating, and I really enjoyed trying to tell it.
