Aloha kakahiaka kakou! Oh boy oh boy, have I had fun this week listening to these videos. Oh my there are some precious gems this week. Rare finds, available to us because folks care enough about the music to share it with the world.
Sit back, get your cup of tea or coffee -- oh, and don't forget the Kleenex, because you are definitely going to feel some wai maka.

"This Little Light of Mine" Global Project has a goal of having this song performed in 100 languages, by 100 people, in 100 different locations on the ukulele. Contributors include many Hawaii Local artist such as Jake Shimabukuro, Kelly Boy Delima, Kenneth Makuakane, Roy Sakuma, Imua Garza, Tiffa Garza, Tiffany Thurston, Guy Higashi and many more. This song has been translated from English, into Hawaiian, Japanese, Spanish, Indonesian, Malay, Africaans, Rap (Hip-hop), to name a few. I have been traveling and sharing the song and global ukulele vision around the world. And people from all over have been contributing their ukulele version. So this song represents recordings in Hawaii, Japan, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea, Australia, Colorado, South Africa, all the way to Borneo. Our friends "Ukuleles for Peace" are working on their Hebrew and Arabic contribution and it will be added on soon. For more information on this global collaboration, my doctoral research on the ukulele and ukulele communitas check out www.uketoday.info.

Concerning the "don't know who" link about halfway down your list: The couple playing slack key and `ukulele are Doug & Sandy McMaster. They perform regularly in Hanalei.

Kurt "Cowboy" Meyer has a You Tube channel, meepo968, with some of the finest videos we have seen in a long, long time. He is the one who has posted the IZ, Henry Kapono, Cyril Pahinui & Roland Cazimero videos, the video of Keiki Hula with the 5th grade girl. Now he has posted a 5-segment video of a pre-show tribute to the Queen for the Keiki Hula competition. He has a 2-segment video regarding Hana, Maui and some other videos on Willie K and Henry Kapono. I highly recommend you visit his channel and check out his videos. All he wants is to know that folks appreciate the videos, so please leave him a comment on his videos as you watch them. I sure appreciate the invaluable history he has shared with us. These are precious gems.
Here is the link to his channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/meepo968 |
