"A DEMONSTRATION OF KIHO‘ALU" WITH DANNY CARVALHO
Danny Carvalho, an 18-year old slack key musician and Na Hoku
Hanohano Award nominee, will be performing at sixteen public
libraries statewide. He will demonstrate the styles of music that
have influenced his journey in Kiho‘alu (slack key). He will play
and discuss the music of the following artists: Ray Kane, Led
Ka‘apana, Sonny Chillingworth, Atta Isaacs, Gabby Pahinui, and Ozzie
Kotani. He will also make specific reference to his CDs and DVDs
which helped him learn these styles, and discuss the role of his
mentor (Ozzie Kotani) in guiding him through his journey. Program is
recommended for ages 11 and older. This 45-minute program is
sponsored by the Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i, and funded in
part by the National Football League Charities, Harry and Jeanette
