Chair Dela Cruz, Vice Chair Keith-Agaran, and members of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means: The Hawai‘i Tourism Authority (HTA) strongly supports House Bill 420 HD1 SD1, which removes the provision designating the Hawai‘i Convention Center (HCC) as the location for the operation of a Hawaiian center and museum of Hawaiian music and dance. The concept of developing a Hawaiian Center and Museum of Hawaiian Music and Dance is one that we fully support; however, the challenge has been the requirement of locating the center at the Hawai‘i Convention Center. By removing this requirement, we will then be allowed to work with the community to identify the best location for this very important facility. We humbly request your support of this measure. Thank you for the opportunity to offer testimony in support of House Bill 420 HD1 SD1.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HAWAIIAN LANGUAGE MATERIALS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII, MANOA CAMPUS Second Printing, 1979 Photocopy, Summer 1986 ,i ~ Foreword Each year the Pacific Islands Program plans to duplicate inexpensively a few work papers whose contents appear to justify a wider distribution than that of classroom contact or intra-University circulation. For the most part, they will consist of student papers submitted in academic courses and which, in their respective ways, represent a contribution to existing knowledge of the Pacific. Their subjects will be as varied as is the multi-disciplinary interests of the Program and the wealth of cooperation received from the many Pacific-interested members of the University faculty and the cooperating com­ munity.

As students of the Hawaiian language, we have a particular interest in the Hawaiian language texts in the Collection. Up to now, however, there has been no single master list or file through which to gain access to all the Hawaiian language materials. This is an attempt to provide such list. We culled the bibliographical information from the Hawaiian Collection Catalog and the Library she1flists. We attempted to gather together all available materials in the Hawaiian language, on all subjects, whether imprinted on paper or microfilm, on tape or phonodisc.

  • Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai'i Tourism Authority Before the SENATE COMMITTEE on ENERGY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, and TOURISM
    Statement of JOHN DE FRIES Hawai‘i Tourism Authority before the SENATE COMMITTEE ON ENERGY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND TOURISM Monday, February 8, 2021 3:00 PM State Capitol, Conference Room #224 In consideration of SENATE BILL NO. 916 RELATING TO TAXATION Chair Wakai, Vice Chair Misalucha, and members of the Committee on Energy, Economic Development, and Tourism: the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority (HTA) supports Senate Bill 916, which specifies that the $1,000,000 of Transient Accommodations Tax revenues currently allocated to operate a Hawaiian center and the Museum of Hawaiian Music and Dance may also be used to plan, design, and construct these facilities at an unspecified location. SB 916 is needed as we move forward to create the new Museum of Hawaiian Music and Dance. This measure will allow the funds to be utilized both for operations and development of the center. Currently, the law does not provide clear guidance as to how the funds may be utilized. The term “operations,” as found in the current statute, appears to restrict the use of the funds to the day-to- day activities of a center. Since this will be a new endeavor, we believe that allowing the funds to also be used for the planning, design, and construction will encourage more interest as we move forward in the Request for Proposal (RFP) process. It is for these reasons that HTA supports SB 916. We appreciate this opportunity to provide testimony.

  • An Intergenerational Celebration of Hawaii's Music Legends
    THE PROGRAM GUIDE OF PBS HAWAII September 2014 | Vol 32, No. 9 Dennis Kamakahi An Intergenerational Celebration Genoa Keawe of Hawaii’s Music Legends MOMENTS See page 2 September 2014 | PBS Hawaii 1 MOMENTS Mahi Beamer, Nina Kealiiwahamana and Robert Cazimero In a 2009 episode of Long Story Short with Leslie Wilcox, singer Marlene Sai reminisced about the days when Hawaiian music could be heard up and down Kalakaua Avenue. “Duke Kahanamoku’s was a supper club. Don the Beachcomber was a supper club. Down the road, you had Sterling Mossman. Across the street was the Moana Surfrider, so you had Pua Almeida playing there. At the Royal Hawaiian, Haunani Kahalewai was playing. It was all over the place, and it was just wonderful.” Today, there is still a home for traditional Hawaiian music and the moolelo of hula and Hawaiian chant. That home is Na Mele on PBS Hawaii. The performances on Na Mele harken back to the Waikiki that Marlene Sai remembers. As you “walk” through the Na Mele archives, you can hear the beautiful voice of Mahi Beamer, with Nina Kealiiwahamana and Robert Cazimero on backup vocals. Down the street, Jerry Byrd’s steel guitar NA MELE MOMENTS serenades a packed showroom. Keola Beamer, his mother Nona and his wife Monday, September 8, 7:30 pm Moana are telling a story about Mauna Kea through slack key guitar, narra- tion and hula. Meanwhile, the uplifting notes of “Kokee” are being sung by Dennis Kamakahi, accompanied by George Kuo, Martin Pahinui, and Dennis’ son, David. And in the middle of it all, Aunty Genoa Keawe, performing with her ohana, is holding that note like no one else can during “Alika.” PBS Hawaii highlights these and other recorded performances with a special presentation, Na Mele Moments.

  • Hawaiian Recordings in the Slack Key Tunings
    Dancing Cat Records Hawaiian Slack Key Information Booklet, SECTION V: HAWAIIAN RECORDINGS IN THE SLACK KEY TUNINGS This section includes a list of the most important (usually) available recordings by Hawaiian Slack Key guitarists in each of the 50 tunings in the CHART OF RECORDED TUNINGS- SECTION IVa, that have had songs recorded in them (the other 12 tunings in the chart that are closely related to another tuning in the chart, bur have not had any songs recorded in them are also listed here, for continuity). The following information is listed for each tuning (the number of the tuning coincides to its number in the tuning chart on page 34). Here are some particulars about this section: 1. Artists which have recorded a particular tuning are listed alphabetically under that tuning. 2. The titles of the recordings are in all capital letters; the record label and number, indication of whether the title is out-of-print (no longer commercially available) and information on whether the Slack Key artist listed is backing up somebody else are also indicated. If the song has another title, we will indicate this within parentheses. 3. Song titles are in italics and are separated by a semi-colon. Medleys have slashes between their component songs. 4. There may be discrepancies in the spellings of some of the song titles. For reference purposes, the titles in this booklet are spelled as printed on the recordings unless there had been an obvious typographic error on the album notes. 5. If a song is played in a key other than the key of the tuning or if the guitar is tuned noticeably higher or lower than the normal pitch the tuning is in, or if the guitar is capoed to a higher pitch, this will be indicated after the song or songs.
