Hawaiian Beach Party

recommended by Jen Sper and Lora Moore, School Choral Music Specialists

Hawaiian Beach Party (A 30-Minute Staycation Presentation) by Andy Beck & Brian Fisher
Celebrate the boundless beauty of Hawai’i with this delightful 30-minute presentation. Hosted by Principal Peterson and Kumu Leilani, our cultural guide, the kids (any number) at this party not only sing and dance to several Hawaiian hit songs, they also learn about the traditions, beliefs, and language of the land. Complete production notes, created with the help of Hawaiian experts, ensure that your simple staging, costuming, and decor are both effective and authentic. Accompaniment tracks feature plenty of ukulele, steel guitar, and live percussion on a playlist that includes popular hula selections, hapa-haole songs, arrangements inspired by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole, a rockin’ version of “Wipe Out!,” and more! Recommended for grades three and up.
