Charles E. King

 * ... that composer Charles E. King (pictured) was taught music by Queen Liliuokalani, and at her funeral led a choir in her composition "Aloha ʻOe" as her catafalque was carried out of Iolani Palace? Source:"Queen Lili`iuokalani was his music teacher." "The singing of "Aloha Oe" by members of the Young People's League who stood on the balcony of the executive building, was a beautiful and impressive feature of the ceremonies. The singers were led by Charles E. King." "...while the remains of the Queen were borne up Nuuanu Avenue. From the balcony above the catafalque came the sweet strains of Liliuokalani's "Aloha Oe" 1, 2, 3

 * Comment: Note that the "executive building" in the source is Iolani Palace. It was first Iolani Palace, then called "executive building" after the monarchy was overthrown, then called "Steve McGarrett's office" during the original Hawaii Five-O, but is currently Iolani Palace as far as anything the tourism board puts out.
