Hawaiian Music -
Mele (Chants)
Hawaiian Chants: Mele of Antiquity - good article.
The Kumulipo -
"This book, which appears for the first time on the Internet at
Sacred Texts, contains the traditional Creation and Genealogical
Chant of the Hawaiian royal family, and Beckwith's extensive
textual, anthropological, and historical commentary. This is one
of the few source documents available in the realm of Polynesian
religion, and it is stunning."
