Songs
of Sovereignty
This vocal and ensemble workshop
will explore issues of Hawaiian
Sovereignty in an historical
and contemporary context. With
the vocal and instrumental instruction
of seminal compositions in the
Hawaiian tradition as a launching
point, students will delve into
issues of self-determination
in contemporary times. Interested
students should demonstrate
a willingness to participate
in the workshop through singing,
chanting, poetry or as instrumentalists.
A group audition will be conducted
in early December.
