As performers take  the stage, they’ll teach attendees some of their favorite songs, from  Hawaiian mele to jazz and everything in between. The list of  entertainers grows daily and also includes Andy Andrews of the ‘Ukulele  Club of Santa Cruz, Keone Turalde, Grammy award-winner Sonny Lim, and  Colin John. This unique opportunity to learn from some of the best and  make beautiful music is &lt;strong&gt;free and open to the public&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Participants can take advantage of free string changing for all  4-string ‘ukulele. In the market for a new ‘ukulele? Custom instruments  made and donated by various ‘ukulele builders from Hawai‘i will be  available for sale.&lt;br /&gt;Calabash donations to aid relief efforts in Japan will be accepted  throughout the day. Participants should bring their own lunch and water,  along with a beach chair and of course, their ‘ukulele. If you have a  favorite song, bring it along to share, too. This is a drug and  alcohol-free event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tt&gt;今週の土曜日、4月9日に「Ukulele  Jam」と題されたチャリティー･コンサートが、ケアウカハのリヒカイ･ハワイアン･カルチュラル･ラーニング･センターにて10時から日没まで行われます！この無料コンサートには地元のミュージシャンでありグラミー賞受賞者のケオキ・カフモクやサニー・リム、ブリットニー・パイヴァ、コリン･ジョン等そ の他大勢の地元ミュージシャンが集い今回の東日本巨大地震の被害を受けた日本の人々の為に募金活動を目的としたコンサートを行います。コンサート以外にもウクレレの無料レッスンや弦の無料交換なども行われる予定。日本の皆様へビッグなアロ～ハが 届きますように！詳細はこちら主催者であるケオキ・カフモクのホームページをご覧ください：KeokiKahumoku.com &lt;/tt&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28761972-6181800674751472066?l=reikohawaii.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://reikohawaii.blogspot.com/feeds/6181800674751472066/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28761972&amp;postID=6181800674751472066' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28761972/posts/default/6181800674751472066'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28761972/posts/default/6181800674751472066'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://reikohawaii.blogspot.com/2011/04/ukulele-jam-for-japan-april-9-2011.html' title='Ukulele Jam for Japan!!

This year, we went to help out the Hilo Hongwanji Temple Mochi Pounding since our Kendo Club belongs there. As you can see, it's a lot of work, but as always, when the work is shared, it becomes fun and much faster path to the goal. In Japan, we eat Ozoni during the New Year celebrations, which is a clear broth soup with mochi, so this is definitely a time to be eating a lot of mochi.

This was a 2 day workshop, and it's pretty amazing to think that you can make your own ipu heke just in that time!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;今日は先日参加した&lt;a href="http://www.ipufarm.com/"&gt;イプ・ヘケ&lt;/a&gt;・ワークショップの様子を簡単にご紹介いさせていただきます。イプ・ヘケとはひょうたんを二つ合わせて作ったハワイの伝統的な打楽器で、フラ・カヒコの際に使われます。二日間かけて自分のイプ･ヘケを 作ってしまう、なんてすごいですよね。先生はカリムとクウレイアロハ・スミス夫妻とカウアイ島のパララさんの三人でした。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__SdSZDlRzLM/TObNzVull6I/AAAAAAAACiE/mo-xwkkSuwQ/s1600/Blog2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__SdSZDlRzLM/TObNzVull6I/AAAAAAAACiE/mo-xwkkSuwQ/s320/Blog2.JPG" width="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__SdSZDlRzLM/TObOO3zay4I/AAAAAAAACiI/l4FgUCXGyI0/s320/Blog3.JPG" width="180" /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;When we went down to the beach to wash the gourds with salt water, we were greeted by a honu (turtle)!

I wanted to share some of the photos from the recent Mahukona Hula Workshop which was one of the workshops offered at the annual 5th &lt;a href="http://www.mokuokeawe.org/"&gt;Moku O Keawe International Festival&lt;/a&gt;. And let me tell you, it was an awesome experience! We got a chance to visit the place of the song Mahukona which has personal ties to Kumu Hula Howard Ai, and were welcomed by this totally awesome anuenue/rainbow as we arrived (that even Kumus Howard and Olana both were totally impressed with... and it stayed with us for the entire time we were there), and to top it off, we got to learn&amp;nbsp; the Mahukona Hula from Kumu Olana (with live accompaniment by none other than Uncle Howard himself singing and playing ukulele! Please check out his beautiful album &lt;a href="http://www.hawaiianmusicstore.com/cds/cd731.html"&gt;Kaleihulumamo&lt;/a&gt; which includes Mahukona and was a 2010 Na Hoku Hanohano nominee).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;Anyway, it was just so fab...

While looking at the TV news report of the live podcast of Moku Ola (Coconut Island), the water receded and rushed out and rushed back in, making the bay water look as though it was a gushing river.&lt;br /&gt;The on-lookers were all over the hill tops with binoculars and folding chairs as they looked on to the yonder sea. Thankfully, it caused no damage and as one tsunami specialist commented on TV, it was the best kind of tsunami since it came, people could get a satisfaction at seeing a small but significant visual signs, but it caused no damage!

Sometimes the modern world is distracting and disrupting, so we may wall ourselves off to remain as pure as we can when it comes to Hawaiian thinking and world view.  People often&lt;br /&gt;ask me what I think of hula music going global.  Part of me thinks it's great, but it would also be great if it never went beyond our shores. Hawaii is the epicenter; if the epicenter isn't good the ripple from the epicenter is weak."&lt;br /&gt;Born and raised on Maui, Reichel's love of Hawaiian culture is lifelong.  It has saved him at least once in his life.  Even though he had started his own halau at age 18, he admits to being wild and "unruly" in all phases of his life.  "I did some stupid things, and I get caught and convicted."  When up for sentencing, the judge thought the work he had done with Hawaiian culture was important enough to keep him out of prison.  As part of community service, Reichel learned discipline and to focus on what he should be doing. He came to the realization it all was supposed to happen.  Thus began his devotion to Hawaiian culture that continues to this day.&lt;br /&gt;Winner of numerous Hoku awards, Reichel has opened concerts for Sting, Bonnie Raitt and Lee Ann Rimes.  His largest audience of 50,000 was at Aloha Stadium with Celine Dion.  He chuckles and says, "The old days of performing at shopping malls are gone."  He admits to a fair amount of anxiety before going onstage.  "I'm basically shy and introverted.  I hate those two&lt;br /&gt;seconds before I perform."&lt;br /&gt;His career has had its embarrassing moments.  He described one memorable misstep.  "I was in my 20s singing and dancing at a lu'au show at one of the hotels.  The stage was four feet high, and black.  I couldn't see the edge, and I stepped off that stage with a microphone, and the audience heard a loud thud, and me, in a very low voice, going 'Owwwwww'.  The band started to laugh.  I went back up and went on performing."&lt;br /&gt;These days most of Keali'i Reichel's time is spent mentoring the young students in his halau.  "We enrich and we've been enriched. It's an interesting life.    We provide a window into the brilliance of our ancestors, through singing, hula, taro farming...every aspect of what we practice."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IF YOU GO:&lt;br /&gt;Performance is at 7 pm at the Peoples Theatre in Honoka'a.

The group Ka'u (with Robi's brother John Kahakalau) will perform with her. The evening of Hawaiian music and dance is a fundraising concert for the newly revitalized Hamakua Music Festival and the Hawaii Performing Arts Festival. Mauna Kea Beach Hotel is the sponsor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ms. Kahakalau happily agreed to perform on behalf of the festival she has visited before and remembers fondly.  "I always loved the Hamakua Music Festival, where it was a real pleasure to perform.  Wonderful people."   She was first to sign up to help the festival, which presents a variety of diverse artists in concert and supports music education in North Hawaii.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Born and raised in Germany, Robi Kahakalau first came to Hawaii when she was 17.  "I knew I was home", she said.  Since then she has embraced Hawaiian language, culture, and of course, its rich music.  Her father, Bob Carter, was a well known jazz bassist in the 1950s who played with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie.   "At our house, Dad was in charge of the record player."  She laughs as she tells the story of her dad, whose real name was Robert Kahakalau, reporting to the East Coast Musicians Union, where he was told he would never get a gig with a name like that.  "He looked up at a nearby billboard, saw the name Carter, and from then on, his name was Bob Carter."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robi started her musical career with the original Hawaiian Style Band, a group that in the early 1990s developed the genre now known as contemporary Hawaiian music.  Israel Kamakawiwo'ole was also a member. In 1996 Robi won Island Contemporary Album of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year awards from Hawaii's Academy of Recording Arts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She has appeared at Carnegie Hall several times, the first time with Makaha and Sons.  Robi's mother,  who had lived in New York for a time, always joked, "When you make it to Carnegie Hall, I'll be there with you."  And she&lt;br /&gt;was.  Robi says, "I had these little military boot-type shoes I performed in.  They were my thing.  My mother said,  Oh, Robi, not those boots.  This is such a nice and classy place.'  So I agreed to wear dressier slippers.  I&lt;br /&gt;ended up tripping on a microphone and unplugging it, then stumbling on my way offstage.  The next time I performed at Carnegie Hall, I wore my little boots, and nobody said a thing!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robi Kahakalau now lives in East Oahu.  Speaking and performing in five languages including, of course, Hawaiian, her smooth vocals are on display every Sunday at Aloha Towers Chai's Island Bistro in Honolulu.  After three&lt;br /&gt;tours to Japan in the last year, she is happy to stay in one place in Hawaii where her fans can hear and meet her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;To hear Robi Kahakalau, go to her website at &lt;a shape="rect" href="http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102822010223&amp;amp;s=762&amp;amp;e=001-_N_bz7oUlyubH8QgYdb_hZDAUWvN3UHcn6vYC12X_nunRAYVrFwWWBaCAZrxRBvoCAxzMsL76nQLWq3Tson34xlSQeJizu3hSA-Wu6JRgLsDzcn5tZ2tw==" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0000cc;"&gt;http://voices.cc/Robi/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;IF YOU GO:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tickets are $39 for General Seating and $49 for VIP seating.
