YouTube.com - Haole Hula-Steel Recital.m4v
Comments: My first performance with Kumu Alan Akaka and his group The Islanders. It was part of a performance for his school of Hawaiian music, "Ke Kula Mele Hawai'i" (www.kekulamele.com) Gary Aiko on bass and Kaipo Asing on guitar, with Kumu Akaka on ukulele. I have been studying with Kumu Akaka for a year or so, and although there are a few clams here and there, I think the spirit is right. Enjoy!!

YouTube.com - Haole Hula
Comments: R. Alex Anderson was a Honolulu business man who loved to write songs. He composed Hawaiian hapa-haole classics like "Lovely Hula Hands" and "Mele Kalikimaka." The lyrics and melody of "Haole Hula" captivated me the first time I heard it, I've worked on my slack key version for a number of years. This video clip is unusual because there are no titles or fades, no camera tricks or edits. It's a simple clip uploaded from a Zoom Q3HD. The only editing done was to trim the start and end of the clip, and that was accomplished in the Q3 before transferring it to the computer for uploading. The guitar is a Kathy Wingert Model E, in taropatch (open G: DGDGBD from low to high) tuning. Please visit my website www.kaleponi.com for more slack key clips...

YouTube.com - "Haole Hula" a hapa-haole song
Comments: Here is my version of the "Haole Hula", a classic hapa-haole song from the late 1920s. It's got the typical poetic references to the land and sea of the islands of Hawaii and the bouncy melody found in many hapahaole songs. It was written by R. Alex Anderson.
