The 25/26 HapaSymphony series starts with chicken skin Hawaiian tales by master storyteller Lopaka Kapanui, “The Ghost Guy.” The author of four spooky story compilations, Kapanui joins your Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra and HSO Composer in Residence Michael-Thomas Foumai for a concert ghost tour paired with spooky symphonic favorites. From The True Killer at Morgan’s Corner to The Green Lady of Waiawa, The Mysteries of Hawaiʻi in Concert features music from The Lord of the Rings, Batman, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and more, paired with Kapanui’s chilling stories. Come as yourself or come dressed up for pre-concert activities, including our annual costume contest and trick-or-treating, “This is Halloween!”
