Sharing the gift of Lakota song / R.D. Theisz.

Theisz, R. D. (Author).

Summary:

"Sharing The Gift is a well written, straight forward presentation of Lakota music, not only about its structure but also about its application within the culture. It is informative as well as educational, and it is easy to read. Designed for those with little or no knowledge of Lakota music, the reader will have a good foundation for appreciating the music once read completely. I recommend this text for the classroom of any level of education as an introductory course." Howard Bad Hand Lakota singer, composer and songkeeper Widely recognized lecturer and teacher.
