Nā Mele: Queen Emma – Her Life and Legacy features traditional Hawaiian chants and songs created to honor and record the life of Queen Emma.
The Mākaha Sons – Louis "Moon" Kauakahi on 6-string guitar, Jerome "Boogie" Koko on 12-string guitar and the late John Koko on upright bass – blend their magical harmonies into unique performances of traditional Hawaiian music. In this encore of a vintage performance taped at the PBS Hawaiʻi studios, they play some of their most beloved songs.
On April 15, 2011, thirty eight years after her Halekulani debut, Emma Veary returned for an evening of music and memories.
