Loka Siliva sung by the Tongan Creatives Collective

One of Queen Salote's original arrangements, Loka Siliva is a love song she penned before her marriage to Tungi Mailefihi in September 1917.

Reknown for her genius in poetry, song and dance, this is one of the hundreds of poems Queen Salote wrote and composed music to in her 47 year reign. She was and still is considered one of the most important writers and composers in Tonga. Here the Tongan Creatives Collective add their own unique flavor to this classic Tongan love song, so sit back and enjoy!
