Description
[Machine Translation] Harmonic vocal duo "Hili'u" (Hawaiian for "sound of the Hawaiian hola shell"). Despite being new artists, they were nominated as finalists for the Na Hoku Hanohano Awards, Hawaii's Grammy Awards, and their first album is now available nationwide. All songs on this album were composed by or about Queen Liliuokalani. Queen Liliuokalani is the last queen of the Kingdom of Hawaii. She ascended to the throne on January 29, 1891, following the death of her brother and former king, King David Kalakaua. However, Queen Liliuokalani and the Hawaiian Kingdom were overthrown by the U.S.-backed Hawaiian Provisional Government on January 17, 1893, and Liliuokalani abdicated the throne and Hawaii was subsequently annexed to the United States. Liliuokalani left 165 songs until his death at the age of 79. In this album, Liliuokalani's songs are arranged in a modern and accessible manner for posterity. We hope this album will bring Liliuokalani closer to you and help you learn more about Hawaii's history.

Description in Japanese
Be Still My Heart / Hiliu
ハーモニックボーカルデュオ、"ヒリウ" (ハワイ語で、ハワイのホラ貝の音という意味)。新人アーティストにも関わらず、ハワイのグラミー賞と言われるNa Hoku Hanohano Awards のファイナリストにノミネートされるユニットの1stアルバムが全国流通開始。 このアルバムの収録曲はすべて、リリウオカラニ女王が作曲した曲、もしくは、リリウオカラニ女王に関する曲です。リリウオカラニ女王は、ハワイ王国最後の女王です。前国王であり兄のデイビット・カラーカウア王の逝去にともない、1891年1月29日、ハワイ王国の女王に即位しました。しかし、リリウオカラニ女王とハワイ王国は1893年1月17日にアメリカ軍の支援を受けたハワイ暫定政府によって転覆され、リリウオカラニは王位を退き、その後ハワイはアメリカ合衆国に併合されました。リリウオカラニは79歳で生涯を閉じるまで、165曲を残しました。このアルバムでは、リリウオカラニの曲を、後世に残すために、現代的で親しみやすく編曲し、収録しました。このアルバムが、リリウオカラニをより身近なものに、そしてハワイの歴史を知るきっかけに、なって頂ければ幸いです。
