5.0 out of 5 stars Authentic and well-recorded disk of Native American music, September 23, 2004

This review is from: Pow Wows of Native Americans Indians (Audio CD)

This cd belongs, without a doubt, in EVERY school library. This would be a huge asset to teach youngsters about Native Americans by playing their authentic music.

The songs and dances on this album are from the Dakota Sioux, Lakota Sioux, Ojibway and Blackfoot Tribes. So here we have Objiways who migrated from the East Coast to Minnesota and Great Lakes), Lakota/Dakota (migrated west and settled the upper Midwest and northern states) and Blackfoot-settled upper Midwest down through the Midwest Plains to Texas. There are two Algonquin languages (Ojibway and Blackfoot) and two central Siouan languages (Lakota and Dakota.) The music sounds similar--what most of us know as American Indian or Native American music, though one of the Lakota pieces (The Kinship Song) sounded vaguely like some Japanese folksongs I've heard and was quite a bit different than the others on this CD.

The sound is clear--this is a fine quality CD with a lot of music on it. If you are interested in Native American culture or are a teacher or student, boyscout leader or have an interest in American history and anthropology, this is a valuable CD. If you conduct sweat lodges or ceremonial events where Native American music is appropriate, this CD is a real find.

The entire is CD is an awesome example of invigorating Native American Pow Wow music. I have probably listened to this CD more than 100 times since I bought it. Native friends enjoy it as well.
