Hawaiian Christmas Carols
Listen to the samples of these apparently unfamiliar Hawaiian songs and discover that you've heard/sung these before. Backed by Jeff Peterson on Guitar, Chino Montero on 'Ukulele, Stephen Jones on Bass, and Bobby Ingano on Steel Guitar, Amy Hanaiali'i makes your holiday season light and wonderful. Back to the Hawaiian songs:
"Hamau E Na Kanaka"="Hark! The Herald Angels Sing"
"Betelehema Iki E"="O Little Town of Bethelehem"
"Po La'i E"="Silent Night"
"Pomaika'i Wale Ko Ke Ao"="Joy To The World"
"Ho'onani Kakou Ia Ia"="Adeste Fidelis," aka "O Come All Ye Faithful"
"Ka Po La'ela'e Ka Hikina Mai"="It Came Upon a Midnight Clear"
"Po Hemolele"="O Holy Night"
"Ke Akua Mana E"="How Great Thou Art"
If the Hawaiian versions are too foreign, there are more familiar Christmas songs, such as "Have Yourself A Merry Christmas" or "Mary Did You Know?" All in all, a delightful Christmas/holiday evening in Hawai'i!
Good music and great voice
I bought this CD as we have been in love with Hawaiian music since a trip there a few years ago. I looked at a lot of Hawaiian Christmas music online and it seemed a little tacky...kind of touristy if you can follow what I mean. Then I heard Amy and knew this was the one to buy. There is a good mix on this CD and I love hearing some of the classics done in her native tongue. Too bad IZ has passed...I would love to hear Amy and him do some duets.
Good CD
I like this CD because I like Amy H. However, her non-Christmas CD's are more interesting than this one turned out to be.
