There is #moretothemele than music alone. Mele connects us to our language, to people and place, and to the communities we serve.Through that connection to their identity, greater civic engagement and a growing sense of their kuleana to lead, our haumāna join their generation’s movement to improve themselves, their communities and their lāhui. Introducing papa 9 song director Haily Nascimento, who will lead her class in a performance of "Ka Nani A‘o Ka‘ū" composed by George Naope and arranged by Kapalai‘ula de Silva.
