The contest is televised live throughout the state of Hawaii on KGMB. It is also webcast live on the school's website and has previously been simulcast on the radio statewide, most recently on KUMU. The 99th competition will be held on Friday March 15, 2019.[1] History The first Song Contest (then called the Inter-class Sing Competition) was held on May 26, 1921 at the original Kamehameha School for Boys. It was started to perpetuate the memory of George Alanson Andrus, a music teacher at the School.[2] Each class from grades 5-9 presented four Hawaiian songs: an original song (up until 1935), a choice song selected by the class, a prize song selected by the music department of the school (up until 1972), and the school song. Each class also selected a song leader to direct the class in rehearsal and performance.[3] One year after the Boys in 1922, the Kamehameha School for Girls held its inaugural Song Contest on the steps of the Main Hall of the Girls’ School (located opposite of the current Farrington High School), while the Boys' contest was held on the steps of Bishop Museum.[4] When Kamehameha moved to its current location at Kapālama Heights in 1931, the contests were moved to the newly built auditorium. The first combined contest took place in 1952 in Kekūhaupi{{okina}}o, the new fieldhouse.[5] In 1964, the contest was moved to the Neal Blaisdell Center (formerly the Honolulu International Auditorium), and it continues to be held there today. In 1966, the hō{{okina}}ike, an exhibition of Hawaiian music and hula performed by students, was added to the program while the judges' scores were being tallied. Beginning in 1953, Song Contest has been simulcast on the radio statewide; the Contest made its television debut in 1968. Beginning in 2000, Song Contest has also been webcast live on the school's website. Kamehameha Schools briefly sold audio of the performances on iTunes and DVDs of the entire program from 2007 to 2010. Purpose Miss Laura Brown, Director of Music at Kamehameha 1926–1947, stated that "the objectives of the song contest are to build up the repertoire of the best in Hawaiian music for the cultural heritage of any student who attends Kamehameha; to develop leadership, cooperation and good class spirit; and to give students the use of their singing voices and to give them pleasure in singing as a means of expression."[6] Participation in Song Contest is a graduation requirement for all students at Kamehameha Schools' Kapālama High School. Format The current format of Song Contest involves three areas of a cappella choral competition: men, women, and coeducational. Each grade (9-12) sings a coed piece. Additionally, the sophomores, juniors, and seniors sing individual men's and women's pieces. The men's competition is held first in odd-numbered years (e.g., 2009), while the women's competition is first in even-numbered years. The coed competition always occurs last. Five prominent community members judge the competition for language and musical performance. There are two language and two music judges, as well as an overall judge who judges both categories. Both categories are worth 50% of a class' overall score; scores are used to determine which performance receives each award.[7] Following the singing competitions, the entire student body performs school songs, including the school fight song Imua Kamehameha, Kamehameha Waltz, and Kamehameha March. The use of the latter two songs alternate each year. The hō{{okina}}ike, an exhibition of Hawaiian music and hula performed by students, follows. After the hō‘ike, classes are presented with awards for the singing competitions, and the evening closes with the student body singing Sons of Hawaii, the school's alma mater. List of awards The following awards are presented after the hō{{okina}}ike and are awarded based on the judges' scores.[6] - The Louise A{{okina}}oe McGregor Award, named for a member of the first graduating class of the School for Girls in 1897, was first presented in 1972. It recognizes the student director who has made the most significant contribution to the class in organizational ability, leadership, assistance to others, and persistence.
- The Richard Lyman Jr., {{okina}}Ōlelo Makuahine Award, recognizes excellence in the use of the Hawaiian language within a song. Mr. Lyman, a Kamehameha Schools trustee from 1959 to 1988, was keenly interested in the preservation of Hawaiian language and culture.
- The George Alanson Andrus Cup, the Kamehameha Schools Boys’ Award, George Alanson Andrus Cup was first presented in 1921. Named for the former director of music at Kamehameha School for Boys, Andrus inspired the idea of an annual song contest, and a cup was offered as an incentive in the competition.
- The New England Mothers' Cup, the year 1922 marked the first year that both the Kamehameha boys and girls held song contests. Mrs. E. G. Scoville, a visitor to the Islands from Watertown, Connecticut, was so impressed with the singing of the Kamehameha girls that she donated the New England Mothers’ Cup for the School for Girls competition.
- The Helen Desha Beamer Award, the Helen Desha Beamer Award recognizes the best musical performance. Donated by the Kamehameha Alumni Association, the award honors the substantial contributions of Helen Desha Beamer to the lexicon of Hawaiian music. Helen Desha Beamer was a 1900 graduate of the Kamehameha School for Girls.
- The Charles E. King Cup, an additional trophy that was offered by the Trustees in honor of Charles Edward King, an 1891 graduate of the School for Boys. The trophy is awarded to the class winning the combined class competition.

2015 Competition | The 95th annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest was held on Friday, March 20, 2015. As Hōkūle‘a and her companion vessel, Hikianalia, embark on a journey to spread the message of Mālama Honua, they represent an island nation and a people—he moku, he kanaka—that is much larger than Hawai‘i or Polynesia alone. They represent our collective identity as the people of Oceania. We are part of a shared Pacific heritage and have a responsibility to each other to help strengthen and move our cultures forward into the future. The ocean does not separate our islands, but instead brings us closer together. Our students joined in song to honor some of the most celebrated voyagers and canoes of the last millennium, including those of today. And while Hōkūle‘a prepares to leave the Pacific for the first time, Hikianalia, will soon be returning home to inspire a new generation of Hawaiian leaders to step forward.

2014 Competition | The 94th annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest was held on Friday, March 21, 2014. The theme for the 2014 Song Contest was, “Kaʻapuni Honua, Songs of World Travel.”. Although our island home may appear to be one of the most geographically remote locations in the world, Hawai‘i has a vibrant history of global awareness and interaction that spans centuries. The sea and sky serve as our roadways and provide an infinite network of connections to the outside world. We travel to explore new places, meet new people, gain new experiences, be immersed in new cultures. And yet no matter how far or long the journey may be, our identity as Hawaiians remains. The mele from this year’s competition served as the proverbial vehicles transporting us to various times and destinations. The stories captured within will inspire us to become more globally engaged while solidifying our homegrown connection to this land. We celebrate the experiences of our people as they traversed the globe and highlight the lasting impacts those journeys have had on our lāhui. The Junior girls of 2015 began the Women's Competition with their song, Mai ʻItalia Kō Lei Nani. The Sophomore girls of 2016 followed, with Kaʻiulani Aliʻi. The Senior girls of the class of 2014 ended with their song, Wahīikaʻahuʻula, and they captured the New England Mother's Cup with their performance. The Senior boys of 2014 opened the Men's Competition with their multiple award-winning song, Waiomina, for which they won the Olelo Makuahine Award, the Helen Desha Beamer Award, and the George Alanson Andrus Cup.

2013 Competition | The 93rd annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest was held on Friday, March 22, 2013. The theme for the 2013 Song Contest was, "He Lei Poina ‘Ole Ke Keiki: A Beloved Child is a Lei Never Forgotten." The words lei (garland) and pua (flower), can poetically refer to children. Although Pauahi did not have keiki of her own, her aloha and concern for her people moved her to create the Kamehameha Schools for the children of the Lāhui Hawai‘i, her Native Hawaiian people. As we look to the future, as Pauahi did over 125 years ago, we focus on the youth. This year's songs reflect the deep aloha that mākua and kūpuna—parent and grandparent generations—have for their pua. Just as a child clings to its mother, so too does a beloved lei adorn the wearer. Each of this year’s song contest mele was composed as a loving makana for a child. Some are well known while others are making their debut. Like Pauahi’s never ending aloha for her people, these beautiful mele continue to express the composer’s love, hopes and dreams for a precious child. Please enjoy the 93rd annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest, featuring the theme He Lei Poina ‘Ole Ke Keiki – A beloved child is a lei never forgotten.. The sophomore boys of 2015 began the men's competition with their song, Ka Pua U'i. The senior boys of 2013 sang next, with their winning rendition of He Punahele Nō ʻOe, capturing the George Alanson Andrus cup for the second year in a row. The junior boys of 2014 ended the men's competition with their song, Pua Hīnano. The junior girls of 2014 opened the women's competition with their song, Pua Mōhala. The sophomore girls of 2015 sang next, with their song Kuʻu Aloha E. The senior girls of 2013 ended the women's competition with their song, Māpuana Kuʻu Aloha, winning them the New England Mother's Cup as well as Helen Desha Beamer award for best musical performance. Senior girls' director Cali Kinimaka also tied for the Louise Aoe Macgregor leadership award. The coed competition began with the sophomore class of 2015 singing, He Inoa No Kaʻiulani, and sophomore leader Dezarae Le'i tied for the Louise Aoe Macgregor leadership award, winning it for the second year in a row. The junior class of 2014 went next with their song, Nēnē Hanu ʻAʻala . The freshman class of 2016 made their debut performance of No Ka Lei Tuberose Ke Aloha. The senior class ended the 2013 competition with their co-ed prize winning song, My Sweet Sweeting, winning the Charles E.

2012 Competition [8] | The 92nd annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest was held on Friday, March 16, 2012. The theme for the 2012 Song Contest was, "Ho‘ōla Lāhui, Ho‘oulu Pae ‘Āina – Vibrant People, Thriving Lands," reflecting Pauahi’s enduring legacy. Much has happened in a hundred and twenty-five years since the founding of Kamehameha Schools. Today, some 6,000 young Hawaiians attend programs at three campuses located on different islands, with some 45,000 Hawaiian learners receiving educational services throughout the community. Supporting this tremendous educational legacy is a significant land legacy consisting of over 345,000 acres. The inter-relationship of people and land — of kānaka and ‘āina — is fundamental to Hawaiian identity and central in Hawaiians’ worldview. For the 2012 competition, some of Hawai‘i’s most accomplished musicians and composers created musical ho‘okupu to celebrate Pauahi’s lands and the vibrant communities that call them home. The sophomore women of 2014 opened the competition with their song, I Keauhou Ka ʻŌnohi A Ka Lāhui by Keawe and Tracie Lopes and arranged by Zachary Lum, a mele honoring the sacred sites of Keauhou-Kona, Hawaiʻi. The junior women of 2013 followed with Ka Leo O Waiālua, written by Nalani Choy and Randie Kamuela Fong and arranged by Aaron J. Salā, which describes the incomparable beauty of Waiālua on O'ahu's North Shore. The senior women of 2012 ended the women's competition with their winning song written by Keola Donaghy and arranged by Kenneth Makuakāne, Aloha Keauhou, a song inspired by the diversity of the Kīlauea rain forest of Kaʻū. Their performance won them the New England Mother's Cup and tied with the junior class of 2013 for the Richard Lyman, Jr. Trophy for best use of Hawaiian language. The junior men of 2013 began the men's competition and took the prize with their song by Dennis Kamakahi, Kamalō, the center of Molokaʻi, and provider of many resources for the people of the island, with an arrangement by Aaron D. Mahi. They won the George Alanson Andrus Cup for best men's performance of the night. The senior men of 2012 sang next with their song, Waipā, written Carlos Andrade and arranged by Robert Cazimero, which speaks of this sacred land that helps us to thrive, and our duty to protect it. The sophomore men of 2014 rounded up the men's competition with their rendition of Les Ceballos' arrangement of ʻO Waiʻanae Kuʻu Home Aloha by Kuʻualohanui Kauliʻa and Keʻala Kwan, which tells of Waiʻanae lands that give birth to resilient and proud Hawaiians, from Kaʻala to Mākaha. The coed competition began with the senior class of 2012 singing, Kakaʻako Kuʻu ʻĀina Aloha, written by Kaiponohea Hale and arranged by Les Ceballos, telling of the efforts to bring back a Hawaiian sense of place in Honolulu's Kakaʻako district. This performance earned them the Helen Desha Beamer Award for best musical performance of the night. The freshman class of 2015 followed with their song by Manu Boyd and arranged by Zachary Lum, Nani Heʻeia, a spirited mele which speaks of the ʻāina momona of Heʻeia, where the palaʻa ferns thrive, and fish are abundant. The freshman director Dezarae Leʻi went on to win the Louise Aʻoe McGregor Award for best director. The sophomore class of 2014 went third with an arrangement by Les Ceballos, performing Nani Punaluʻu by Kamakāne Hopkins, a song that describes the lush land and thriving loʻi at Punaluʻu, in Koʻolauloa. The junior class ended the 2013 competition with their co-ed prize winning song, He Aloha Kaʻūpūlehu, written by Līhau and Kellen Paik and arranged by Aaron J. Salā, which speaks of Hualālai, where Puna winds caress the body. They captured not only the Charles E. King Cup for best coed performance but also a tie with the senior women of 2012 for the Richard Lyman, Jr. Trophy for best use of Hawaiian language.

2011 Competition [9] | The 2011 competition, entitled "Aunty Irmgard Farden Aluli: A Musical Journey," was held on March 18, 2011 and featured songs i tribute to one of Hawai‘i's most beloved and prolific composers. The storied life of Aunty Irmgard reveals a woman who understood the power of song to capture the profound beauty of her world. The songs featured in this year's Song Contest are like entries in a journal — they are postcards that recount the highlights of a musical journey for all to enjoy. The senior men of 2011 opened the men's competition with Momi A{{okina}}o Ku{{okina}}u Pu{{okina}}uwai by Moses Naehu and arranged by Les Ceballos, a song about a couple, and their courtship meetings near Pauoa Valley. They won the George Alanson Andrus Cup for best men's performance of the night. The junior men of 2012 then performed Aloha Kaho{{okina}}olawe, recounting the majesty of Kaho{{okina}}olawe with an arrangement by Robert Cazimero.

2000 Competition | The 2000 Song Contest was entitled "Celebrating the Music of Helen Desha Beamer". The competition showcased songs composed by the prolific composer, Helen Desha Beamer. She was a teacher of the mele and hula of Hawai‘i and shared her knowledge of things Hawaiian with family and friends. Her legacy lives on, not only in her family and their many talents, but also in her music and the era it represents. Her legacy also lives in the students of Kamehameha who have performed her music often over the past 78 years of Song Contests and perform it again in this year's program that is devoted exclusively to her. - Women's Competition

Kamehameha Song Contest Statistics Class Colors & Historical DataEvery year since the 1970s, the freshman class is given a list of available colors to choose from. The color they choose will be their class color for their whole high school career and is used at special events, mainly for the Song Contest competition. Each of the main Hawaiian Islands are represented by one of these colors. The options are Red (Hawai'i), Pink (Maui), Yellow (Oahu), Gray (Kaho'olawe), Green (Moloka'i), Orange (Lana'i), Purple (Kaua'i) and White (Ni'ihau). Orange was not on option until it was added to the ballot for the freshmen class of the 2006-2007 school year. Prior to the true Orange selected by the Class of 2010, classes selected an Orange shade of Goldenrod which combined yellow and orange. In 2006, the distinction between Yellow and Orange was made. Note: The Class of 2010 was the first class to be offered White as a class color, but chose Orange. The Class of 2017 was the second class to have White as a class color choice and became the first class to choose White as its class color.[13] :† indicates that a class tied for an award with itself, so said award is counted twice.:* indicates a senior sweep that did NOT include the McGregor award.
