The music of the Haida tribe in the Pacific Northwest is shrouded in secrecy from outsiders because of it's sacred role in society. However, musicologist Ida Halpern managed to collect a number of recordings of Haida songs from tribespeople eager to keep their heritage alive. This album contains songs about love, celebration, war, drinking, and dialogue between Halpern and the singers.
