Unlike other folk song collectors, who gathered material during scheduled field trips, Lieurance immersed himself into tribal life, living for long periods among tribes in different parts of the country. Gaining their confidence, Lieurance collected Native American themes that he would arrange and harmonize for publication. His most famous song, “By the Waters of Minnetonka,” was published in 1913 with English lyrics by James Mulloy Cavanass. Described as “An Indian Love Song,” the work was originally scored for violin solo with piano accompaniment but was later adapted for a variety of other instruments. Its wistful, haunting melody proved to be conducive for a wide variety of interpretations, becoming one of the most famous Native American-derived pieces of the 20th century. Artists who recorded it included operatic sopranos, jazz and dance orchestras, vocal choirs, organists, Hawaiian guitars, big bands, country \u0026amp; western singers, novelty acts, and Lieurance himself, who taught himself to play it on Native American flute. In this talk, we’ll learn about the song’s origins and hear samples from its many recordings.\u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Publisher"]},"value":{"en":["Association for Recorded Sound Collections"]}},{"label":{"en":["Rights Statement"]},"value":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eCopyright Association for Recorded Sound Collections\u003c/p\u003e"]}}],"summary":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eComposer Thurlow Lieurance (1878 - 1963) was the author of over 300 pieces of music but became best known for his work collecting, documenting, and arranging traditional music of Native Americans, especially those from the Crow and Sioux tribes of the Upper Midwestern United States.
