Part Two Of The Hawaii Shochiku Orchestra’s Musical Story
HAWAII MUSIC AWARD WINNER - World Music Album of Year!
=
21 original hits recorded in Hawaii circa 1947 – 1950’s. The only orchestra of the period to
introduce original compositions & cause a sensation in the Islands. Many of them went on to
become hits in Japan & Japanese enclaves throughout the world. This was an extraordinary
feat at the time. This is part two of the Hawaii Shochiku Orchestra’s musical story.
A perfect retrospective! It celebrates the music of Americans of Japanese Ancestry.
