'You actually see what difference it makes for people with disabilities,' says Mohi. When they returned to New Zealand, they looked for a music therapist for their daughter Hineraukatauri – but found there wasn't a lot of scope here, deciding to set up their own. For the first time she was able to truly express herself and connect with the therapist. The idea came to them after their own daughter, Hineraukatauri, who suffers from cerebral palsy, experienced music therapy in London while they were living in the UK: 'Her response was exhilarating and immediate. She and husband George Bradfield, together with supporters, established the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre, using music to help people with special needs.
Mohi, who recounts the events surrounding the rendition on this guest spot in Steinlager's 'New Zealand's Finest', says her love of music had another major effect on her life. 'I've never regretted it, but I do get a little frustrated that I'm always defined by it because certainly the things that are important to me didn't start and stop at the singing of the anthem – although I do understand and appreciate the role it had to play in my life.'
