Music of Montana - Native American Music

Native American Music

Montana is home to several Native American Reservations and traditionally to more than two dozen distinct tribes, each with their own forms of music. These include the Blackfoot, Crow, Flathead, Cheyenne, Chippewa-Cree, Gros Ventre, Assiniboine and Sioux. An example of the modern synthesis of popular and traditional Native music in Montana is Jack Gladstone, a folk musician and lecturer/presenter who embraces Native themes, and who has collaborated with fellow Montana musician Rob Quist.

Famous quotes containing the words native, american and/or music:

    Of all my prosecutors ... not one is my peer, but each and all are my political sovereigns; and had your honor submitted my case to the jury, as was clearly your duty, then I should have had just cause of protest, for not one of those men was my peer; but, native or foreign born, white or black, rich or poor, educated or ignorant, sober or drunk, each and every man of them was my political superior; hence, in no sense, my peer.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    One American said that the most interesting thing about Holy Ireland was that its people hate each other in the name of Jesus Christ. And they do!
    Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)

    If music be the food of love, play on,
    Give me excess of it that, surfeiting,
    The appetite may sicken and so die.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
