Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame#Individuals

File:Cover of Hawaii Ponoi1.jpg by Kalakaua and Henri Berger]]

The Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame is an organization dedicated to recognizing the cultural importance of the music of Hawaii and hula. Established in 1994, the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame promotes the appreciation and preservation of Hawaiian culture through educational programs and annual inductions honoring significant individuals, groups, institutions, chanters and songs.{{cite web|title=Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame|url=http://www.hawaiimusicmuseum.org/index.html|publisher=HMHF|access-date=23 April 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120415225746/http://www.hawaiimusicmuseum.org/index.html|archive-date=15 April 2012}}

The Royal Patrons

King David Kalakaua, Queen Liliuokalani, Princess Miriam Likelike and Prince William Pitt Leleiohoku II were siblings known as Na Lani ʻEhā, or The Royal Four, for their patronage and enrichment of Hawaii's musical culture and history. All four were composers. Their aggregate body of musical compositions in the Hawaiian language numbers in the hundreds. After the hula had long been banned by missionaries, Kalakaua restored it as a symbol of the Hawaiian culture. Kalakaua and Liliuokalani were the last monarchs of the Kingdom of Hawaii, but The Royal Four's legacy of music to Hawaii lives on through individual artists. The Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame acknowledges the royal siblings as their patrons.{{cite book|last=Haas|first=Michael|title=Barack Obama, The Aloha Zen President|year=2011|publisher=Greenwood Publishing Group, Incorporated|isbn=978-0-313-39402-7|page=150}}
