Ukulele Explosion on Maui

March 31, 2013  /  George Tanabe

At the invitation of Benny Uyetake, an ukulele master who teaches at Kalama Intermediate School, I spent a day at their Ukulele Explosion educational fair on March 30.  I heard some great music, especially that of Benny's group, the Kalama Kids.  I did a PowerPoint presentation on Japanese Buddhist temples in Hawaii with a focus on Maui.
