Now that March is almost over and Spring
is upon us, the theater season on the island is almost over. However, if you
are on the Big Island on May 10 you will have the opportunity to enjoy Hawaiian
music at its best. On that date the Kahilu Theater in Waimea will host The
Brothers Cazimero, two musicians who have captivated audiences for a very long
time.
We first encountered their music in the
early 1980’s when we first heard a song by them while sitting in a restaurant
in Waikiki. It was unlike any the Hawaiian music which was being played at that
time. Their music was distinct and very original. We soon went to see their
show at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and have been fans ever since. We are proud to
say we have every CD they have put out. They are so unique to Hawaiian music
that they have performed at Carnegie Hall in New York City, a venue that does
not usually cater to Hawaiian music. The brothers, Robert and Roland, not only
bring their music to the theater but Robert has a hula halau which performs along
with them.
The Brothers Cazimero has been a fixture
at Kahilu Theater every Spring. This year we have the privilege of being
co-sponsors of their appearance. From
what we have been told they will not be returning to the Kahilu Theater next
year, so this may be your last chance to experience the wonderful performance
of this extremely talented duo on the Big Island.
