Native North American Pow-wow Drum songs portray levels of deep spiritual awareness. An Intertribal song is played as explanations of music form and meanings are explored. A "Trinity" relationship is shown as the Lead calls too (or directly represents the Calling from God). The Chorus ( with descending melody lines) describes knowledge gained in a relationship between Mankind and the Great Spirit, while the Coda illustrates meditation on the above. It is also shown interfaith Scriptures worldwide commonly embrace much of the spiritual insights seen in this music.
This performance by the Northwest Bay, Ontario Singers was recorded by me for radio July 7th, 1984; at Redlake, MN.
