5.0 out of 5 stars Other worldly and joyful, May 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Rapa Iti (Audio CD)
The reviewer above gives you the technical reasons for the other worldly feel to this album. What is missed is the sheer sense of joy of singing that this album conveys. I think it is that quality which makes this album so successful.

I would like to comment on the statement that all of the songs are pre-contact with Europeans. #3-Himeme Tatou is the hymn "Once I was bound by sin's galling fetters..." copywrited in 1917 and renewed in 1945 by the Nazarene Publishing House. I also believe #13 is another hymn but I can't quite place it. Maybe someone else can.

I highly recomment this album to anyone who would like to hear something different and joyful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Angelic islanders, September 17, 2004
This review is from: Rapa Iti (Audio CD)
Heard about it on NPR with interview of person who did original recording. Great representative of South Pacific choral music with unusual twist (you might think its a bad place in the CD) which is derived from the tribal religion.
