What does it mean to be a “hula musician?” This session asks seasoned “hula musicians” to reflect on their roles, experiences, and kuleana in supporting the hula dancer – and how their kuleana may differ from another type of musician. Panelists will explore mele hula arrangements, intentional performance, and pilina with the kumu hula and ʻōlapa.
