About

A gorgeous album of traditional music of Eastern Polynesia from David Fanshawe's monumental Pacific Collection, recorded over ten years (1978-88). The album focuses on the rich variety of authentic himene (hymns) indigenous to Tahiti, the Cook Islands, the Society Islands and others. Extensive information about the music, transcriptions and translations of the lyrics, richly illustrated with colour photos.
