Scope and Contents

Fatele recorded by Judith Huntsman in Nukunonu, Tokelau on 14 August 1968. Continued from previous tape. Notes from file: "Fatele. This style is said by Tokelauans to have been introduced from the Ellice Islands. [Musically it appears to be based on hymn singing]. Most contemporary songs now being composed in the Tokelau are fatele. The following fatele are textually derived from kakai (folk tales)."
