Abstract
This paper considers the connections between traditional Mori flutes and contemporary New Zealand compositions for the Western, Boehm-system flute.First, the context of Mori music is discussed, with a particular focus on the revival of the traditional flutes that has occurred during the past thirty years.Three existing works for flute by New Zealand composers Helen Fisher, Gillian Whitehead, and Philip Brownlee are then analyzed, zooming in on their convergences with the timbre and playing styles of traditional Mori flutes.The final part of the paper details a research-creation collaboration with New Zealand composer Chris Gendall, who was commissioned to compose a new work for solo flute that incorporates research on traditional Mori flutes and emulation of their sounds.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
