Listen to Koro tell the life story of the tree Taketakerau, from germination over 2000 years ago, to present day 21st century.
The story also follows the history of New Zealand – covering one thousand years of isolation, and a further thousand years of human intervention.
Listen to bird calls, thunder and rain, trickling water and bubbling mud. Hear the cries of people, the roar of motor vehicles, and soaring music.
