Indian music is that practiced by the first people living in America. Also called Indians, Native Americans are the indigenous peoples whose presence precedes any Western colonization. Organized in true empire or single tribe, we find traces across the continent where there are the North American Indians, Meso-American Indians, Native Americans in Caribbean and South American Indians (Native American drums for sale).
This simple songs are similar to that of "Great Basin" with a strophic form, the use of falsetto, the tritone or tetratonic scales and melodic intervals typical of fourth or a fifth. Pueblo sing monophonies low, slow and complex (in five sections divided into phrases. With the Hopi and Zuni, the Taos Pueblo have one of richest music of continent, employing a variety of musical scales (hexatonique or heptatonic) a register of two octaves. The music of Pimas and Papagos is quite similar.
Indian music includes pre-Columbian music, but also that the Indians continued to practice after and despite initial contacts, or on the margins of latter. The genre characterized by a wide variety of aerophones, idiophones membranophones and, with very rare stringed instruments. There is no known treaty or Native Americans music system; music is as varied as the number of people is just and has a social function, identity or cultic essential.
It's often associated with forbidden or taboo, sometimes being reserved for men, singles, etc. Its generally very simple monophonic, there are still examples of polyphonic or orchestral music. The instrumentarium is very rich because of linguistic, cultural and natural variations (wide variety of plants used) but the strings are very rare because of absence of metal.
Given the impracticality of field and the importance of Indian population before the arrival of Spaniards and Portuguese (and French and Dutch), a large number of mixed race and Indians were included in vast colonial empire, unlike those in North who were decimated.We must distinguish the pre-Columbian music (remaining in Amazonian tribes) folk music (mestizo in Andean regions and pampas) although both are not interpreted Native Americans or their descendants. Among the folk music, he is also having been influenced by the massive importation of black slaves (and cultures), especially in Brazil.
This genre is characterized by extreme vocal tension, a record of nearly an octave with a strong use of perfect fourth in tetratonic scale and descent make up the melody. This area includes the desert area of Utah, Nevada and Oregon (with the Paiutes, Utes, Shoshones, Modoc and Klamath).
Tradition tells how its inherited deities, rituals branded the creator or their tribe. Although the styles and customs are different, its a common fact among the tribes; it's the link between music and power: that staff first musician, but also that of song or the rituals. Many instruments, music or songs are for men or women, who are often extra singers.
This area includes Alaska, the Northwest Territories, Yukon, Nunavut and Greenland, populated by Inuit who are not considered a Native Americans people first. Inuit is simple; it is good to share including a rare playful throat singing on this continent, melodies restricted to register a sixth, third of prominences, declamatory or repetitive effects with recitatives and more complex rhythmic hardly formed by a drum accompaniment on frame or box drum.
