A ʻo ka hui mua i ʻike ʻia ma ka huaʻōlelo “Hawaii” ʻo ia ka ʻukulele ʻukulele, nona ka moʻolelo e hoʻopaʻa iā ʻoe i loko o ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i ke kai, ke one gula, nā nalu maʻalahi a me ka ʻakaʻaka hauʻoli. ʻO ka mea kani, ke pā ʻia nā kaula a i ʻole nā ​​kī, ola. Me kona mau manaʻo kupaianaha, kani mele a me nā leo maʻalahi, makemake ʻo ia e haʻi i kāna moʻolelo, i kāna mea e hele ai i mea e hauʻoli ai ka poʻe i kēia mele kupaianaha.

Akā, pehea lā e hiki ai i kekahi mea hana ʻEulopa ke hiki i Hawaiʻi? I kēia manawa, e hoʻokuʻu ʻia kekahi mea kākau moʻolelo mai kona mau wāwae ke noi ʻia ʻo ia e hāʻawi i nā ʻoiaʻiʻo hilinaʻi, akā ʻaʻole e loaʻa iā ia kekahi mea, no ka mea ʻaʻole i mālama ʻia. I kēlā mau manawa, hele mai nā kaʻao e hoʻopakele.

Moʻolelo pōkole

ʻO ka mea kani, i komo i loko o ka puʻuwai o ka poʻe he nui ma ke ʻano he ʻōiwi Hawaiʻi, ʻoiaʻiʻo nō kona aʻa ma Pokukala, ʻoi aku ka pololei, i ʻehā o kona mau ʻōiwi. Ma ka ʻāina o 1878-1913, nui nā kamaʻāina o ka ʻāina ʻo Pukiki i hoʻoholo e hele e ʻimi i kahi ola maikaʻi aʻe, ua hāʻule kā lākou koho i ka pae ʻāina ʻo Hawaiʻi. ʻO ka mea maʻamau, neʻe ka poʻe i laila ʻaʻole me ka lima ʻole, akā me kā lākou mau mea, aia kekahi mea kani i kapa ʻia ʻo braginya - kahi kīkā liʻiliʻi ʻelima mau kaula i hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo ka progenitor o ka ʻukulele.

Ke neʻe nei i kahi noho hou, nui ka poʻe i hoʻomaka e hoʻāʻo iā lākou iho i nā hana like ʻole i mea e loaʻa ai kahi ola a me ka meaʻai. No laila, ʻehā mau hoaaloha ʻo Augusto Diaz, José do Esperito Santo, Manuelo Nunez a me Joao Fernandez i hoʻomaka e hana i nā lako Pukiki, ʻaʻole i ʻoluʻolu i nā kamaʻāina, a i mea e noho mau ai, ua aʻo hou nā hoa i ka hana ʻana i nā mea kani. ʻO kā lākou mau hoʻokolohua i alakaʻi ai i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo i ka makahiki 1886 ua hānau ʻia kahi mea kani maʻamau me kahi leo hoihoi, ʻoliʻoli a nani. ʻEhā mau kaula wale nō ka mea kani, ʻo ia hoʻokahi kaula i emi iho ma mua o ko kona kupuna, ka braginya. ʻO wai o nā mea ʻehā i haku ʻia ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia, akā hiki ke ʻike ʻia ka inoa ʻo M. Nunez ma nā hiʻohiʻona mua, ʻoiai ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo J. Fernandez he mea akamai i ka hoʻokani ʻana i kēia mea kani. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana, ʻaʻole i ʻae ʻia ka hana ʻana o ka poʻe Pukiki e ka poʻe kamaʻāina, akā ua loli nā mea a pau ma hope o kahi hoʻolauleʻa liʻiliʻi, i hui pū ʻia e ke Kamāliʻiwahine Victoria Kaiulani a me kona ʻanakala ʻo David Kalakaua, ʻo ia ka mea mua i hoʻokani i ka ʻukulele. Ma muli o kona makemake i kēia mea kani, ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e hoʻokomo iā ia i loko o ka ʻaha mele aliʻi i hiki i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe ke hauʻoli. ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia ka mea i hoʻololi ai ka manaʻo o ka poʻe kamaʻāina, ʻo ke aloha o ke aliʻi i nā mele ʻano ʻē, a ʻo ka hana ʻia ʻana o ka ʻukulele mai loko mai o ka akasia Hawaiʻi, he hōʻailona ia o ka mahalo i ke ʻano. ʻAʻole ia he mea ʻole mai ia manawa ʻaʻole i hoʻopau ʻia kahi hoʻomaha hoʻokahi me ka ʻole o nā leo o kahi kīkā ʻehā.

Peʻa lele

Hiki ke unuhi ʻia ka inoa o ka ʻukulele - ʻukulele - ma nā ʻano like ʻole. ʻO ka ʻano ʻokoʻa kaulana loa ʻo ia ka "lele lele" ma muli o ke ʻano o nā neʻe manamana lima e like me nā lele chaotic. Ma waena o ka lehulehu makemake i kēia hāmeʻa, aia kekahi mau mana o ke kumu i loaʻa ai kēia inoa maʻamau.

Wahi a ka mana mua, ua kapa ʻia kēia mea kani e ka poʻe kamaʻāina no ka mea ʻo ka mea pena i hoʻokani i ke mele i hoʻokani i nā kaula me kona mau manamana lima me he mea lā e lele ana i laila. Wahi a ka ʻōlelo ʻelua, ʻo ke aliʻi e noho aliʻi ana i kēlā manawa he aloha ʻē aʻe i kēia mea kani, a ʻo ke kanaka Pelekane e noho ana ma kāna ʻoihana, ua ʻāhuʻu nui ʻo ia i kāna hoʻokani ʻana a ua like ʻo ia me ka peʻa lele. ʻAe, ʻo ka koho hope loa, ʻoi aku ka hanohano. Ua manaʻo ʻia ua ʻike ka Mōʻīwahine o Hawaiʻi, ʻo Liliuokalani, i kahi mea kani o ka ʻāina ʻē a kapa ʻia ʻo ia ka ukulele, ʻo ia hoʻi ka "aloha i hiki mai."

Ua aie ka ʻukulele i kona kaulana ma ke ao holoʻokoʻa i ka hana ʻana o ka Royal Hawaiian Quartet ma ka Hōʻikeʻike Panama-Pacific ma Kapalakiko i ka makahiki 1915, a ma hope iho ua hoʻomaka nā mea a pau e kamaʻilio e pili ana ia mea. A hiki i ia manawa, ʻike ʻia kēia mea kani ma ka pae ʻāina ʻo Hawaiʻi wale nō, kahi i hoʻokani ai nā kamaʻāina a pau, e hoʻopiha ana i nā alanui a me nā kahakai me nā leo hoʻohiwahiwa.

ʻO kā mākou manawa hou

ʻO ka ʻukulele - ʻukulele a ʻuke paha - ke lilo nei i mea kaulana loa. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia kēia mea kani liʻiliʻi ma kahi kokoke i kēlā me kēia keʻena, hiki ke lohe ʻia kona mau leo ​​ʻaʻole wale ma nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni Hawaiʻi, akā ma ko mākou mau alanui hoʻi, hoʻokani ʻia e nā mea hoʻokani pila a me nā mele pop. ʻO ke ʻano ʻokoʻa a me ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi, i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā hoa acoustic ʻē aʻe, alakaʻi i ka poʻe hoʻolohe i ka leʻaleʻa kupaianaha a hoʻonui i ka nānā. Hiki ke wehewehe ʻia ke kaulana kaulana o kēia mea kani ma ka ʻoiaʻiʻo i loko o ka manawa pōkole hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo i kekahi mau chord, e lawa loa ia e hele pū me kahi mele hauʻoli.

I kēia manawa ua hoʻokumu paʻa kēia mea kani ʻehā i ka jazz; ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokūkū me ka ʻāina a i ʻole ka pōhaku a me ka ʻōwili ma muli o kona ʻano. ʻElima mau ʻano o kēia mea hana, ʻokoʻa ka nui, ke ʻano a me nā mea hana. Hana ʻia nā ʻukulele mai ka lāʻau, akā naʻe, i kēia lā hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā ʻukulele i hana ʻia mai ka plastic a me ka lāʻau. He ʻokoʻa ke ʻano o ka mea kani - hoʻāʻo ikaika nā haku, hāʻawi i nā ʻukulele hou a kōkua iā ia e pāʻani me nā kala hou.

Hiki i nā kānaka a pau ke pāʻani i nā mea kani hoihoi e like me ka ʻukulele a hāʻawi i ka minoʻaka hauʻoli. ʻAʻohe mea kupanaha e hīmeni ʻia nā mele a pau me nā kumu Hawaiʻi.
