The word aloha is much more than just a greeting---it has a deeper meaning that conveys cultural beliefs about how to treat others. This rhythmic original by Ruth Morris Gray celebrates the five traits of aloha, sung in Hawaiian, and then defines them in English. The two independent lines are a perfect fit when later combined. A few enthusiastic handclaps during the intro and interlude add excitement. Chord symbols are provided for optional ukuleles or sing with the island-inspired SoundTrax.

Inspire d by a trip to Honolulu, this music embodies the aloha spirit that so many discover when visiting the islands of Hawaii. Making use of a wealth of authentic percussion instruments (along with many options for substitutions), the piece truly captures the bright spirit of Hawaii. An optional ukulele part is cued in other instruments, and the piece concludes with a powerful rendition of Hawaii Aloha, an anthem of great pride to those who live in Hawaii. Magical!

The Hawaiian word for slack key guitar, kÄ« hÅâ??alu, means to â??loosen the keyâ? or retune some of the strings to create a harmonious sound with an open or alternate tuning. Slack key is a fingerpicking style characterized by strong alternating bass lines played with the thumb. While slack key can be played on any guitar, most players prefer a nylon- or steel-stringed acoustic instrument. This book presents 25 intermediate to advanced traditional and original tunes in the Hawaiian slack key style. Melodies are often harmonized in sixths or thirds played with or without double stops. Techniques like syncopated bass lines, hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, and harmonics are tastefully employed to evoke the images of ocean breezes, swaying palms, hula dancers and white sandy beaches. The author writes, â??Unless you grew up playing slack key, itâ??s hard to get from the material presented in most books and DVDs to a fluid, play-it-your-own-way style.â? This book seeks to reveal the insights the author has gleaned from studying and jamming with some of the giants of the slack key style, and help you develop a style all your own. Includes access to online audio tracks of all 25 relaxing but challenging Hawaiian slack key tunes.
