The music of Polynesia is a diverse set of musical traditions from islands within a large area of the central and southern Pacific Ocean, approximately a triangle with New Zealand, Hawaii and Easter Island forming its corners. Traditional Polynesian music is largely an inseparable part of a broader performance art form, incorporating dance and recital of oral traditions; most literature considers Polynesian music and dance together.

  • La música polinesia incluye aquí las que se ejecutan en todas las islas que forman el perímetro polinesio e incluye las Islas Cook,Tuvalu, Tonga y Polinesia francesa; aunque cercana, difiere de la de Nueva Zelanda o de la música hawaiana. Esta música es esencialmente vocal, o enfocada al acompañamiento de percusión como el que se observa en la danza tahitiana, el tamure o el . Ciertamente hubo cantos sagrados y cantos de trabajo antes de que llegara James Cook, pero solo quedan fragmentos de ellos. Por el contrario, con la llegada de los misioneros cristianos, se adoptó masivamente un nuevo tipo de polifonía. Del mismo modo, la presencia de marineros occidentales permitió la importación de la guitarra hawaiana y el ukelele. (es)
  • La musique polynésienne englobe ici l'ensemble des îles formant le périmètre polynésien et inclut les îles Cook, les Tuvalu, les Tonga et la Polynésie française ; bien que proche, elle se distingue de la musique maorie de Nouvelle-Zélande et de la musique hawaïenne. Cette musique est essentiellement vocale, ou axée sur un accompagnement percussif tel celui observé lors de la danse tahitienne, le tamure ou l'ote'a. Il existait certainement des chants sacrés et des chants de travail avant la venue de James Cook, mais il n'en reste que des bribes. Au contraire, avec l'arrivée des missionnaires chrétiens, un genre nouveau de polyphonie a été massivement adopté. De même, la présence des marins occidentaux a permis l'importation de la guitare hawaïenne et du ukulélé. (fr)

Although the European tradition of hymn-singing brought by Christian missionaries was probably the most important influence, others are evident; Hawaii's influential kī hōʻalu (“slack key”) music incorporated the Spanish guitar introduced in the late 19th century, and later introduced the steel guitar to country music. Hip hop and R&B influences have created a contemporary Urban Pasifika music genre with a strong Polynesian identity and supported by the annual Pacific Music Awards in New Zealand. (en)
