Rotuman Music Credit Page

The purpose of this page is to identify the composers (manatu) of well-known and well-loved Rotuman songs. If you know the names of such songs, and the men or women who composed them, please convey this information to Alan Howard <ahoward@hawaii.edu> The songs can be old and traditional, or new, as long as they are in the Rotuman language and generally known. We recognize that there may not be complete agreement about who composed a particular song; in that case we will list all the composers with question marks after their names. If you think you know the name of a composer, but are not sure, send it in anyway and we will list it with a question mark until the composer is verified by others.
