Music of the American Indians of the Southwest

The Music of the American Indians of the Southwest is one of the most versatile art forms in America. Music plays a crucial role in the ceremonies and dances that embody the culture of the Pueblos, the Southern Athabascans, the Ranchería tribes, and the Plateau Yumans heard in this collection which achieves its goal “..that the American Indians of the Southwest will be justly represented through the art medium which expresses so vitally and strikingly the richness and color of their daily social and religious life.”
