About Maracuyá
Since its launch in 2008, founder Sandy Sur has worked hard with the families of Leweton to preserve, teach and share the cultural values of the people of Vanuatu through traditional forms of story telling such as dance, music, arts, language and cultural practices. The Vanuatu Women’s Water Music (also called Leweton Womens Water Music, and Maracuyá) is the most internationally known performances by the group. They travel the world performing the Na Mag and Ne Lang dances as a prelude to the mystical water music, dressed in their traditional costumes of Gaua and Mere Lava made from flowers and leaves, coconuts and pandanus. Their performance is truly mesmerising as they reimagine the old with contemporary expressions of Matto - bringing together traditional beats and rhythms with ukulele-led melodies and soaring vocal harmonies.
