5.0 out of 5 stars A Very Moving and Uplifting Video, November 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Spirit - A Journey in Dance, Drums and Song [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this on a PBS special and couldn't wait to get a copy of it and the CD for myself. After many months I got both. The music is very intense and moving. The vocals of Chief Hawk Pope and drum beats mixed with chior and electric guitars, keyboards, and other modern instruments bring Native American culture into our own modern world. The show has a very good message, too. One we all seem to forget in our stressed-out, modern, every-day life.

I've viewed this video many times, especially when the real world becomes too stressful. This is a nice, spiritual production. I highly recommend it.

They also have some footage not included in the PBS special, and the interviews after the show were very good. I enjoyed hearing what other Native Americans had to say about the show and the reasons they were involved in it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Musical and Artistic experience for the Soul!, January 21, 2000

I Loved this video! It is a contemporary musical with a Native American tribal foundation. The blending of the old and new music was amazing! The spectacular choreography is powerfully danced by incredible talent. The cast was culturally diverse and a beautiful composition of the young and old ways. It moved me to tears to see where mankind has lost himself in the material world. There are many ancient messages within this video. A must see for everyone! It will give clarity and purpose to your soul self!

5.0 out of 5 stars sacred expression, December 13, 1999

By 

cecelia brock (california) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spirit - A Journey in Dance, Drums and Song [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This was one of the finest expressions of spirit I have ever seen in any art form. It is much more than entertainment, it is a lens into a expression of the sacred. It expresses it's form in dance, music, modern life colliding with the best of Indian values and beliefs. The music and dance are powerfully displayed in short pieces of music that together describe the psychological, spiritual and sacred journey of the human. This could been seen as a model for integrating polarized ideologies and cultures. Absolutely beautiful.
