  • George Kuo Aloha No Na Kupuna - "Love for the Elders"

    George Kuo Aloha No Na Kupuna - "Love for the Elders"

    LINER NOTES George Kuo Aloha No Na Kupuna - "Love for the Elders" George Kuo was born November 17, 1955 but his beautiful slack key guitar style dates back a generation or two earlier. "My feeling is in the older way of playing from the 1940s," he says. "For me, the old tunings with real loose strings and a real prominent bass have a lot of chicken skin (goose bumps)." George's feeling for the older style extends beyond technique to the more subtle area of attitude. "I like to play a nice relaxed, easy style," he says. "Not too much fancy stuff, keep it within the melody. Simplicity is really my style. I try to keep it simple but blend in the right notes. It's more delivering a message than playing runs." George first took up guitar in elementary school and ki ho'alu in high school. He learned by being around friends such as Richard Rathburn and Antone Gabriel, who liked to get together and jam. Antone played in the style of his grand uncle, Albert Kawelo, who had taught slack key legend Raymond Kane in the early 1930s. "When I heard Antone," George says, "I said to myself that's how I want to play...the old style." George's family was very supportive of his music. "My granduncle and aunt liked to hear that style too," he says, "and they really encouraged me." For a young person attracted to old style ki ho'alu, the 1970s were heaven in Hawai'i. A wide– ranging revival of traditional culture was in full bloom.

  • The Pleasures and Rewards of Hawaiian Music for an 'Outsider'

    The Pleasures and Rewards of Hawaiian Music for an 'Outsider'

    12 Living in Hawai‘i: The Pleasures and Rewards of Hawaiian Music for an ‘Outsider’ Ethnomusicologist Ricardo D . Trimillos Foreword I first met Stephen Wild at the 1976 Society for Ethnomusicology meeting in Philadelphia. Since that time we have enjoyed four decades as session- hopping colleagues and pub-crawling mates. In regard to the former, most memorable was the 1987 International Council for Traditional Music meeting in Berlin, where, appropriate to our honoree, one of the conference themes was ‘Ethnomusicology at Home’. It is this aspect of Stephen’s service that I celebrate in my modest effort for this festschrift. In 2006, the journal Ethnomusicology produced its ‘50th Anniversary Commemorative Issue’, which contained the essay ‘Ethnomusicology Down Under: A Distinctive Voice in the Antipodes?’ (Wild 2006). It was an informative and at times prescriptive account of the trajectory for ethnomusicology in Australia. I found the essay a most engaging exercise in personal positioning by an author within a historical narrative, one in which personality and persona were very much in evidence. Inspired by the spirit of that essay and emboldened by its novel approach, I share 335 A DISTINCTIVE VOICE IN ThE ANTIPODES observations about ‘doing ethnomusicology’ where I live—in Honolulu, Hawai‘i. This brief and personal account deliberately draws parallels with our honoree’s experiences and activities during a long career in his ‘homeplace’ (Cuba and Hummon 1993). The pleasures of Hawaiian music in California My first encounters with Hawaiian music were not in Hawai‘i but in San Jose,1 California, locale for the first two decades of my life.

    Heart of the Sea -Transcript RELL: A lot of grand-parents come up with the name before you're even in your mom. They have a dream and they tell your mother, well you’re going to have another girl and her name’s going to be: Kapolioka’ehukai, that means Heart of the Sea. COMMENTATOR (WOMAN): Next up is a native of Hawaii: Rell Sunn COMMENTATOR (MAN): She grew up at Makaha and really knows these waves well. Look at her maneuver here. Look right there, Andrea, that’s a nose ride, you don’t see many of them anymore, it’s an extremely different maneuver to perform on these small boards. Looking at in slow motion, you’ll notice she pulls herself up high in the wave, drops her weight back, stalls her board into the critical section and simply walks to the front of the board...plants herself on the nose and rides the wave; extremely difficult, it’s going to score. RELL: Before I could read, I could read the ocean. I knew the tides , I could read the wind on the ocean, I thought I knew everything I ever needed to know just from being on that beach every day, everything. I started surfing when I was four. It’s like you’re four and you’re having a revelation; you can’t quite articulate it but you know the feeling. And my dad was like a beach boy. And he used to surf all the time and so of course that was going to be a part of our lives.

    Read Liner Notes Here

    LINER NOTES Martin Pahinui Ho'olohe One of Hawaiian music‘s most gifted vocalists, John Martin Pahinui has performed with a host of top performers, including his father‘s legendary Gabby Pahinui Hawaiian Band, The Peter Moon Band, The Pahinui Brothers, Nina Kealiçiwahamana, Bill Kaiwa and slack key super group Hui Aloha (with slack key guitarists George Kuo and Dennis Kamakahi). The youngest child of Gabby Pahinui (1921-1980) and Emily Pahinui, Martin grew up surrounded by music— not only the amazing kï höçalu (slack key) in his family home but also the many other styles floating on the wind in Waimänalo, where he grew up and still lives. Like many children of famous musicians, Martin is keenly aware of a double responsibility: to honor his family‘s musical legacy and to always be himself. ―My daddy is a very big influence on all of us,‖ Martin says, ―but he always did things his own way, and he taught us to trust our own instincts too. He loved Hawaiian music but he wasn‘t afraid to change something if he felt it was the right thing to do. Some people would grumble, but he‘d say, ‗So what, some people grumble no matter what you do.‘ He always said to respect the song and the composer and the people who taught you, but never be afraid to express your own feelings when you play.‖ Recently, when the local rap group Sudden Rush asked the Pahinui family for their blessings to use a recording of Gabby‘s classic rendition of Hiçilawe, Martin supported them.

    Sophomore Seminar Kï höÿalu: The New Renaissance of a Hawaiian Musical Tradition Sano, Fall 2005 3 units Course Syllabus Originally, a style of guitar playing developed in the Hawaiian Islands during the 1830's, kï höÿalu, or Hawaiian slack key guitar, is an art form that is currently experiencing newfound exposure and popularity in Hawai‘i and worldwide. The rise in popularity of this art form coincides with the increased awareness, dissemination, and growth of political activism directly relating to Hawaiian culture. In this course, we will explore the musical, cultural, historical, and political perspectives of Hawaiian music in general, and kï höÿalu in particular, through hands-on experience, readings, class discussion, and a workshop with a visiting master kï höÿalu artist. With kï höÿalu, as the focal point, we will learn about Hawaiian music and history, and explore the relationship between performance, cultural expression, community, and identity. COURSE REQUIREMENTS Musical Autobiography (5%) Analysis Paper (10%) Master Class with Ozzie Kotani (10%) Midterm (written and practicum) (20%) Final (practicum) (15%) Practicum Progress (15%) Participation (25%) •Musical Autobiography (2 page minimum). Give a brief account of your musical experiences (including Hawaiian ones) as an infant, pre-teen, high school, and Stanford student.
