SCEP Live Online Concert Series: Keauhou

November 20, 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Mānoa Campus, Hosted by SCEP Live Online

Keauhou finds passion and joy in the performance, preservation, and perpetuation of traditional Hawaiian music. The name, 鈥淜eauhou,鈥 was suggested by Hailama Farden, while the trio played music at the Kamehameha School鈥檚 Midkiff Library. This library is home to the waa (Hawaiian canoe) named 鈥淢akani Hou o Keauhou,鈥 under which the group performed. Translated as 鈥渢he new wind of Keauhou,鈥 this wa'a became the inspiration for the group name, 鈥淜eauhou.鈥 While the Hawaiian language offers a multiplicity of meanings and translations, the group鈥檚 name can be translated as 鈥渢he new/renewed generation.鈥

This name defines the young trio, Kahanuola Solatorio, and brothers, Nicholas and Zachary Lum, as they strive to bring forth inspiration from Hawaiian music of the eras preceding them, and contribute to a renewed respect and interest for the incomparable beauty of traditional Hawaiian music.
