All music written by Te Vaka group leader Opetaia Foa'i and sung
in the Tokelau language. Tokelau is a group of islands on the
coral outriders of Polynesia - three far flung atolls, with a
total land mass of only four square miles. Opetaia Foa'i was born
in a Tokelauan community in Samoa, a community deeply and spiritually
involved with music. Guitars were introduced to Pacific Islanders
by whalers in the last century and are played in an open string
tuning peculiar to Pacific Islanders.

Like many of you listening, Coffee plays an important
role in my life, the dark aromatic liquid that warms me each morning
and perfumes the air throughout the day with the scent of exotic
lands. I prefer to drink coffee bearing the names of countries
like Sumatra, Kenya AA, Colombian, Ivory Coast, Hawaiian Kona,
Zimbabw and Java, of course, the country name whos name is synonymous
with coffee. Drink the coffee and listen to the musicThis evening it's a pleasure
for me to share, once again, "Music
From The Coffee Lands" courtesy of the Starbuck Cafe at Mankato's
Barnes & Nobles; where you can pick up a free coffee beverage
of your choice with the purchase of the "Music From The Coffee
Lands."
