“More than an hour of ultra-rare documents, the testimony of a century of inuits recordings ! As a guide through this abundant material, we included a complete 24 pages booklet... a very
helpful complement not only for purists !
Voices recorded almost hundred years ago in Greenland on wax glader cylinder for today; hearing a lost shamanic story, a duel-song, a mounful melody; this record presents an unique
collection of drumdance and songs - 55 historical recordings of traditional Greenlandic music from 1905 (by the british ethnologist William Thalbitzer) to 1987 and collected by the danish ethnomusicologist Michael Hauser. This is - beyond the document in itself - a way to be lost in time and space. Hope, happiness, mourning; humanity is right there.” [press release]
