About

Songs of Tokelau: Ko ā la Whātuga celebrates one of the greatest composers of fatele, Ihaia Puka and his wife Helina Puka. Their collaboration on fatele song and dance resulted in some of the best known fatele compositions.

The CD release “Ko ā la Whātuga” (“Their compositions”) is a celebration of the Tokelau language, the poetry and beauty of the fatele form, and is released to coincide with Tokelau language week.

The disc includes a 16 page booklet with introduction to the fatele, background information and full translations of the songs, all beautifully designed and presented.
