Hawaiian music fans outside

HAWAIIAN MUSIC LYRICS -- LIST OF LINKS HAWAIIAN MUSIC LYRICS -- WEBSITES MELE.COM does not provide lyrics all requests will be directed to this page, with links to sites/businesses which provide lyrics (some also provide translation and chords) The first place to look for lyrics, is in the liner notes of every CD which includes the song (to find recordings of a specific song, click "Search" on the MELE.COM front page, and follow instructions given) Pa'a ka waha, nana ka maka; hana ka lima. Shut the mouth; observe with the eyes; work with the hands. (One learns by listening, observing and doing.) This was the traditional method for learning Hawaiian songs, as one sat near a musician as s/he played. Songs and tunings were passed down through generations of families -- from kupuna (elder) to keiki (child). Hawaiian songs were rarely (if ever) put in writing, not even the lyrics. Very few musicians in Hawai`i could read music, so this was how the songs were perpetuated. Even today, many of the "top" musicians in Hawai`i do not read sheet music...they learn the old way, or from listening to a particular song over and over (on tape or CD) and playing along until they feel ready to play the song in public. Hawaiian music fans outside the islands -- in their eagerness to learn the lyrics and translations of their favorite songs -- are often dismayed to find that they may, too, have to learn "the old way". While some Hawaiian CDs include this information in their liner notes, many do not. Harry's Music (O`ahu) for Hawaiian sheet music. Phone 808-735-2866 -- If Harry's doesn't have the sheet music, nobody does! -- #1 for Hawaiian sheet music Huapala Hawaiian Music Archives -- #1 for Hawaiian song lyrics & translations Hapa Haole Songs -- #1 for hapa haole (mostly English) lyrics Sheet Music Plus -- sheet music, songbooks, and guitar tabs Hula Preservation Society -- `oli (chants) Hawaiian Independence music Hawaiian Songs database , compiled by Dr. Amy Stillman Hawaiian Chants & Songs in Published and Recorded Sources , compiled by Dr. Amy Stillman University of Hawai`i Sheet Music Database Ukulele Strummers Koloheboy's Hawaiian Uke Page ©2005 Hawaiian Music Island -- MELE.COM -ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Site Map | Contact Us | Site Guide | Submit Halau | Submit Concert
