      Foreword

      The folk music of Hawaii is a living blend of the cultures of people from all over the world, particularly from lands washed by the Pacific Ocean. In addition to informal singing, there are the devoted efforts of both practiced and unpracticed performing groups that keep alive the music of Japan, Okinawa, Korea, China, the Philippines, Micronesia, and Polynesia.

      A number of institutions in Hawaii are increasingly active in the promotion and preservation of the authentic folk music of the Pacific peoples including the University of Hawaii, Bishop Museum, Kamehameha Schools, Laie Church College, and others. Japanese
