Tribute To Na Lani Eha: Hawaiaan Monarchy / Var

• Track Listing

This recording features multi award winning Hawaiian artists paying tribute, with their individual interpretations, to composers, Nä Lani 'Ëha the Royal Four. Veteran singer-musicians Del Beazley, Manu Boyd, Teresa Bright, Kawaikapoukalani Hewett, Louis Moon Kaukahi and Cyril Pahinui each selected two songs that hold special meaning for them. The Queen was the most prolific composer of the 19th century and her music, along with that of her siblings, survive to this day; often recorded, and sung at backyard gatherings by descendants of the people they once ruled. While the performance styles vary here, each of the contributing artists gives masterful performances as they pay tribute to these beloved composers.
