Traditional Gospel Singing of Rarotonga - Cook Islands Music

In 1821 missionary John Williams brought the Gospel to the Cook Islands and here, nearly 200 years later,  we immersed ourselves in the heavenly voices of its devout people.

This traditional style of hymn singing is entirely unique to the Cook Islands, the beautiful sound known as “Imene Tuki”.

Thank you so much to Arorangi Congregation of Cook Islands Christian Church for your wonderful voices.
