Mahani Teave on Creating the First Music School on Rapa Nui

Now, a musical odyssey to one of the most remote places on earth. Mahani Teave's love for classical music began as a child when the first piano arrived on Rapa Nui, or "Easter Island," as it was named by the first European explorer to arrive in 1772. But then she gave it all up to create the first music school at home. Mahani Teave joins Christiane from Rapa Nui to tell her fascinating story.
