Few visual artists captured the essence of traditional Native American culture as effectively as American photogravure artist Edward S. Curtis. With this release, history buffs and art enthusiasts alike can experience the lasting legacy of a skilled artist and the ceremonies, life, dress, and manners of a long-lost culture set to traditional music composed by Lawrence Laughing, Mary Youngblood, and Joanne Shenandoah. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
Extremely well put together viewing old photo stills of Native American culture and life at turn-of-the-century while assisted by modern Native American new age music and songs! No narration makes this DVD one for the home to just play it and go about your household chores. The stills are incredible!
good still photos but no names to educate also music was good flute but too consistent and became annoying. not for the non traditionals or non native interests in strictly photos with extensive knowledge. I personally was hoping to see writings in reference to the photos for my reference.
Very nice music, especially if you are familiar with the artist's music. A wonderful tribute to ancestors and a gained appreciation of different tribes individuality and heritage.
