Slack key is fairly easy to learn and is made easier yet with pictures and video supplements. "Uncle Dave" has a degree in music and has been playing the `ukulele for fifty years. He has written many original `ukulele slack key songs, some of which are included in this publication. He teaches `ukulele slack key at the East Hawaii Cultural Center in Hilo, Hawaii and is also a lecturer at the University of Hawaii, Hilo campus. You are introduced to popular tunings: Taro Patch, Wahine F, Wahine G Major 7th, and Wahine D Major 7th, . It does not matter if your standard tuning is GCEA for soprano, concert, or tenor or DGBE for baritone. The instructions take this into account to include all `ukulele scales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawaiian slack key guitar (Ki Ho'alu) is one of the world's great acoustic guitar traditions. This tradition includes virtuoso guitar pieces, but the majority of songs played slack key are classic Hawaiian melodies either played as instrumentals or as accompaniment to vocals with instrumental breaks between the verses. the term slack key does not refer to a type of guitar, but rather to any guitar played in the slack key style, that is, in alternate tunings with slacked strings and fingerstyle technique. Acknowledged slack key master Keola Beamer is a member of a family known for its musical artistry for generations. We are fortunate to have him writing in conjunction with veteran Mel Bay author, educator and multi-instrumentalist Mark Nelson, who simply followed his love of the music to the Islands. Written in standard notation and tablature to accommodate numerous alternate tunings, this book is presented in four sections: 1) the most common tuning introduced by fairly easy songs; 2) Illustrations of how to build your own arrangements; 3) A presentation of various slack key tunings; and 4) A selection of duets in the slack key style. Historical and cultural insights are offered throughout in the spirit of aloha, producing an informative, musically enlightening book with soul and humor. the companion CD features tuning tracks and informal introductions of the audio content by the authors, plus some beautiful slack key music.

Book excerpt: Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, born in 1959, the year Hawai'i became a state, rose to unrivaled celebrity on the strength of his one-in-a-million voice and a four-string 'ukulele. His phenomenal hit "Over the Rainbow" propelled his Facing Future album to Platinum status. His voice has been heard around the world in blockbuster films, television shows, and advertisements. IZ: Voice of the People is a portrait in words and over 200 photos of the man behind the music--his childhood, his early year with the Mā kaha Sons of Ni'ihau, his solo career, his personal struggles and successes. It is about fame, but it is also about triumph over adversity and loss; about standing up for the people of Hawai'i at a critical time in their history and inspiring them to demand justice and sovereignty; and about the music, people, and events that shaped Israel and his career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, after years of preparation, is the most ambitious book ever written about Hawaiian music - its roots, popularity and influences in the world, leading personalities and groups, organizations, songs, and publications. The complete story is here, from ancient chants to the flowering of the musical renaissance in Hawaii nei. Nearly 200 illustrations add to the book's appeal for Hawaiian music fans and serious students. Many rare photographs of historical interest are among the illustrations featuring singers, chanters, dancers, and instrumentalists. Musical instruments are also featured in drawings and photographs. Melody lines, chants, and rhythm patterns are illustrated by music notation. The book is organized like an encyclopedia, with about 200 entries in alphabetical order. They include biographies of musicians from every period of Hawaiian musical history - from Henry Berger, David Kalakaua, Queen Lili'uokalani, and others of her time, to the great names of the first half of the twentieth century, and on to the performers and composers of today's Hawaiian renaissance. There are major articles on chant, slack key, steel guitar, 'ukulele, himeni, Hawaiian orchestras, falsetto, humor in Hawaiian music, radio, television, and the recording industry to name a few. Definitive essays tell the story of all ancient and modern musical instruments and the most loved and important songs of the last 150 years. Much of the material is new or original and fresh insights are brought to the more familiar topics. Some myths are dispelled, long-standing controversies discussed, if not settled. For instance, the book comes closer to answering the question "what is Hawaiian music?" than anything written so far. The work also contains and extensive annotated bibliography of works on Hawaiian music, and two discographies.
