Aloha 'Oe Auntie Nina
Want to send my sincere condolences out to Uncle
Charlie and his 'ohana with the passing of kumu hula Nina Boyd Maxwell, known
for decades of work with young hula dancers and her insistence on strict
traditional protocol and style. Here's the
Maui
News obit and the
Advertiser
obit.
And today in the Maui
News her mo'opuna Adrian K. Kamali’i has a
traditional kanikau or
lamentation chant. (Also in the
Advertiser
letters
with a bit more background.)
