Do you know the musical accompaniment for a hula dance? Solve the crossword puzzle now!

As a detective solving the mystery of the crossword clue ‘Strung accompaniment for a hula‘, my mind immediately went to the traditional Hawaiian dance and its accompanying music. I know that hula dancers often wear leis, which are garlands of flowers strung together, and that the music often features ukuleles or other stringed instruments.

The word ‘strung‘ in the clue seemed like an important hint, as it suggested that the accompaniment was also made up of strings. I considered other stringed instruments that might be associated with Hawaiian music, such as guitars or banjos, but none seemed to fit the number of letters in the answer.

Then it struck me that ‘strung‘ might actually be a hint towards the construction of the accompaniment rather than the type of instrument used. After all, a lei is made up of several individual flowers or pieces strung together on a string. With this insight, the answer ‘LEI‘ suddenly appeared before me, fitting perfectly into the crossword’s grid.

Thus, through careful consideration of the clues and drawing on my knowledge of Hawaiian culture and music, I was able to solve the mystery and uncover the answer to the crossword clue ‘Strung accompaniment for a hula‘ – a lei.
