Detailed Instrumentation: String Orchestra
Duration: 2
Description:

This arrangement of the Hawaiian folk song Kahuli Aku will evoke the imagery and vibrancy of the “singing snails” (Kahuli) depicted in the song lyric. Young musicians and their audience will sense a deep connection and respect for the earth and the creatures that inhabit it. Performing Kahuli Aku using the woodblock, wind chimes, staccato, tenuto, and engaging dynamics, students will imitate the Hawaiian Kahuli in their music, as they hope to be brought a drink of water by the Kolea (Plover) from the Akolea fern.
