PESE LOTU SAMOA is a collection of songs composed, transcribed, arranged and analyzed in my doctoral thesis (Pese Lotu Samoa: The Modernization of Samoan Church Music). Many of the old tunes were borrowed by early missionaries from old English hymnals. Composers are recognized for their works.  Tunes with unknown composers' names are labeled as Anonymous (Anon).
