  • Northern Style Powwow Music: Musical Features and Meanings Anna Hoefnagels
    Northern Style Powwow Music: Musical Features and Meanings Anna Hoefnagels Abstract: Modern powwows are important social rituals closely linked to expressing affirmations of Native identities. Based on her fieldwork in southwestern Ontario and Southern Alberta, Anna Hoefnagels explores methods of classifying powwow music that may serve as pedagogical tools, and ways of teaching and understanding Northern- style powwow music._____________________________________________________________________________ Music is the central feature of contemporary powwows, around which other activities—including dancing, socializing, and shopping—revolve. Physically, the musicians and their drums, called drum groups or Drums, are at the centre of the powwow, with a series of concentric circles emanating from the Drums in the form of dance area, audience, vendors and the camping area. The Drums provide the music that accompanies the dancers, which is the central and most spectacular aspect of the powwow. Powwow songs have common features with one another; yet when one listens closely to these songs, one realizes that the songs are quite distinct from one another. There are regional differences in powwow singing, due to the geographical and tribal origins of both the songs and the musicians. However, to the uninitiated, powwow songs may all sound the same. Fortunately, as Tara Browner (2000) indicates, “pow-wow music exists in a Pan-tribal (as opposed to tribal-specific) context, [so] the vocabulary its musicians use when talking about song making and performance is almost entirely in English...” (p. 215). Despite potential political conflicts regarding language and terminology, this shared vocabulary makes conversations with musicians about their music much easier than they would be if there were different or specific descriptive vocabulary.

Watch the Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMDquZqH-EE Guided Learning: How did the dancers change their movements to express the different emotions? Think about body (what parts of their body did they move and what was their facial expression), time (how fast or slow did they move), space (how high or low and where on the floor did they move), and energy (how light or strong were the movements). Play dance charades by writing down at least 10 emotions on slips of paper. Draw them from a hat or bowl one by one and see if you can create a dance to express that new emotion. Learn More: Alvin Ailey founded the American Dance Theater in 1958 to carry out his vision of a company dedicated to enriching the American modern dance heritage and preserving the uniqueness of the African-American cultural experience. He pioneered programs promoting arts in education, particularly those benefiting underserved communities. Throughout his lifetime, he was awarded numerous distinctions. https://www.alvinailey.org/ 2 Learn more about legendary contemporary dancer, Martha Graham, by watching this video presented by the Kennedy Centre Education Digital Learning danced by the Martha Graham Dance Company in 2005.
