Description

[Machine Translation] KA MELE HULA VOL.1", a hula project starting in 2012, will present an album of classic hula songs sung in "Japanese", bringing you a view of Hawaii through words and music. ho'o.hau.'oli" is a unit formed for the project "KA MELE HULA" which started in 2012. KA (song) MELE HULA" is the first album in which they sing many famous Hawaiian hula music songs in "Japanese. Why do we long for Hawaii and why do we love Hawaii? According to one theory, there are as many as 500 or 1,000 hula songs, or even more. Many of the songs should be familiar to those who have direct contact with the hula, as well as to those who have not. Hula" is a spirit, an art form, and a form of expression that combines music and dance. This album is produced by ho'o hau'oli, who has created a series of songs that bring you back to the hula, which is a symbol of Hawaiian culture. This album is the first release in the series, and features 12 songs carefully selected from traditional songs that are familiar to many people. Another approach that ho'o hau'oli chose was to sing the songs in Japanese in order to deepen the understanding of the original songs and express the depth of Hawaiian daily life and music, starting with "Aloha". The word "Aloha," which is used as a representative image of Hawaii and as a greeting in everyday life, means not only "hello" and "good-bye," but also the combination of love and joy of living together that lies behind the words. Ho'o hau.'oli means "to make happy" or "to delight" in Hawaiian. Mina Koga (wood bass/vocals), Paniolo Yamauchi (guitar/ukulele/vocals), and Charlie Mukai (guitar/vocals), who were involved in the production of an album of 250 hula standards in 2011, formed this group to express the beauty of the melodies and harmonies of Hawaiian music and the love and tenderness in the hula, all in Japanese, so that Japanese people can truly understand the lyrics and dance. Mele Hula Japan unit was formed so that Japanese people can truly understand and dance the hula with the lyrics. We can translate lyrics from Hawaiian to Japanese and write lyrics specifically for you.

KA MELE HULA VOL.1~日本語でフラ~ / ho'o.hau.'oli

2012年から始動するフラ・プロジェクト「KA MELE HULA VOL.1」珠玉の名曲を「日本語」で歌うアルバム言葉と音楽が奏でるハワイの景色をお届けします。2012年から始まったプロジェクト「KA MELE HULA」の為に結成したユニット「ho'o.hau.'oli」(ホー・オ・ハウ・オリ)。「KA(歌) MELE HULA」は数多くの名曲を有するハワイアン・フラ・ミュージックを「日本語」で歌うアルバムの第1弾。なぜハワイに憧れ、なぜハワイを愛するのか?フラ・ミュージックは一説によると500曲とも1000曲、もしくはそれ以上に数多くの楽曲があると言われている。直接、フラに接している人はもちろん、そうでない人にも聞き覚えのある楽曲は多いはずだ。「フラ」とは精神であり芸術であり音楽と舞踊が織りなす表現の1つ。そのハワイ文化の象徴でもある「フラ」に癒される名曲をho'o.hau.'oli(ホー・オ・ハウ・オリ)がプロデュースした。第1弾のこのアルバムでは多くの人に馴染みのあるトラディショナルな楽曲の中から12曲を厳選してレコーディング。そんな「Aloha」から始まるハワイの日常と音楽の奥深さを表現し、原曲の理解を深めるためho'o.hau.'oliが選んだもう一つのアプローチは「日本語」で歌うことだった。例えば、ハワイを代表するイメージや普段の挨拶で使われる「Aloha」という言葉に含まれる意味とは単に「こんにちは」、「さようなら」だけではなく、その言葉の奥にある愛や共に生きる喜びが重なり初めて輝きを放つ言葉だと聞いている。KA (歌)・MELE・HULAを創造する、新しいメレフラジャパンユニット!Ho'o.hau.'oli(ホー・オ・ハウ・オリ)*ho'o.hau.'oli(ホー・オ・ハウ・オリ)は、ハワイ語で、「幸せにする」「喜ばせる」という意味。2011年に250曲にもなるフラ・スタンダードアルバムの制作に携わった、古賀まみ奈(ウッドベース/ボーカル)、パニオロ山内(ギター/ウクレレ/ボーカル)、チャーリー向井(ギター/ボーカル)の3人が、ハワイアン・ミュージックのメロディーやハーモニーの美しさとフラに宿る愛や優しさを全て日本語で表現し、日本人が心から歌詞を理解して踊れるために結成したメレフラジャパンユニットです。ハワイ語から日本語への訳詞、作詞を具体的に可
