Native Americans Folk Music

[Yanc]

Hi

Does anyone can help me finding bands playing native american tribes music? I mean, I don't need a band, I need their CDs.

TIA
Yanc

native american music at amazon

Yanc,

Start with the links above to amazon.com and matoska.com.

At both, you can even listen to soundtracks on the pages for specific CDs. As with books, there are people who sell what they call "used" - I am not certain if that is the best way to go with CDs.

I will be happy to help you obtain CDs.

Nancy,
I've actually never had a problem buying used CDs, but I've only ever bought them from places like Amazon, Ebay, etc. where people have to state the condition of the item and where one can get a refund if the used item's condition is not as stated.

Yanc,
Half.com is another good source for used and new CDs.

Thanks girls ;-)

I'll look into it.

I have a CD with this music and I like it very much:

I have one: Ancient Winds - Spiritual feeling

There is someone here in our town who makes Native American (American Indian) flutes and then sells recordings of the music...I don't know this person, but have heard recordings of the music. As Jaga says, very spiritual, very relaxing.

Yanc,

You can also try this link www.folkways.si.edu/search/SearchResults.aspx?AlbumTitle=Native+American+Music&TrackTitle=&ArtistName=&CatalogNumber=&YearOfRelease=&NumItem=10&YearMode=QuickSearch at The Smithsonian Folkways Records. They only have two albums listed...there is another "Heartbeat: Voices of First Nation Women." You can listen to bits of songs from the albums.

Here is what was said about "Creation's Journey: Native American Music:"

Presented by the National Museum of the American Indian. From powwow music to Christian songs in Cherokee to Irish reels, Native peoples from the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Bolivia present living traditions and crossovers to Euro-American musics. Recorded in New York City and Washington d.c., in 1992 and 1993. Package includes detailed notes in a beautifully illustrated booklet. An eloquent expression of enduring creativity, vibrant cultural life, and diverse artistry. 64 minutes. "A wondrous exhibition of Native American music." –TSC Entertainment News
