The
Kahilu Theater in Waimea kicks off its season on Saturday September 20, with a
concert by John Cruz. If you haven't heard him, he is a legend of Hawaiian
music.
In
October there are two dance performances followed by the Kamuela Philharmonic
Orchestra's Tribute to Hawaii. In such a small town such as Waimea, it is truly
amazing that a truly fine symphony orchestra exists for our pleasure.
November
highlights the annual Ukulele Festival, a truly fantastic two-day affair featuring
some of the best ukulele and slack key artists in the State. This is followed
in December by an evening with Jake Shimabukuro, perhaps the foremost ukulele
artist in the State. His performance is followed by a virtuoso violinist and
the annual Waimea Community Chorus Christmas concert. The chorus is a fantastic
gathering of local singers doing an excellent concert.
2015
brings Makana to the stage. His performance is a highlight as he is an up and
coming power in Hawaiian music. February seems to be jazz month featuring the
Harlem Quarter and the Honokaa Jazz Band. The Honokaa group of school kids go
an amazing job.
March
brings the Kamuela Philharmonic back to the stage, followed in April by a piano
concert by Sean Chen. May highlights Hawaiian music with performances by The
Brothers Cazimero followed by KealiÕ™i Reichel. Both are extremely talented
artists.
The season concludes in June with
the Spring concert of the Waimea Community Chorus.
