    Lords of the Dance – Culture of the Cook Islands
    Brief information of culture.

  • Music IF THERE is one outstanding ability which appears to be shared by all Cook Islanders it is music and song

  • Close harmony singing is highly developed in church music and the power and emotional impact of chants and hymns at weddings and funerals is well known to visitors who attend

  • Even the Australian didgeridoo has not been spared and it sometimes appears in so called Tahitian drumming rhythms together with nose flute sounds reminiscent of the Andes bamboo pipe music

  • Oh yes, even the didgeridoo, which first appeared in Tahitian music in 1993 (after the 1992 Festival of Pacific Arts popular performances by the Australian aboriginees) now has a Tahitian name

  • I had earlier been privy to informal discussions in the 1980s between former Cook Islands Prime Minister Geoffrey Henry and French Polynesian President Gaston Flosse on the subject of Cook Islands music and drumming rhythms being used in Tahiti

  • At both times, President Flosse acknowledged the popularity of Cook Islands drum beats and music in French Polynesia
