Chippewa Music Issue 45 is a fascinating study of the traditional music of the Chippewa people, one of the largest and most culturally significant Native American tribes in the United States. Frances Densmore, a pioneering ethnomusicologist, lived among the Chippewa and recorded many of their songs using newly invented audio technology. Her meticulous transcriptions and analyses provide a valuable record of Chippewa culture and a window into the musical traditions of Native American peoples.
