This music, recorded by French musicologist Jean-Michel Beaudet in Wayãpi, or Wayampi, villages of Southeastern Guiana between 1977 and 1979, documents the Wayampi's traditional way of life, fishing and hunting and subsisting off the resources of the equatorial Amazonian forest complemented by the cultivation of a few crops like yam and cassava.
According to Beaudet, "The material civilization and social life have changed little as a result of contacts with the Creoles and Europeans living in Guiana." "There are several musical genres: various types of solo flutes played mostly for recreation and relaxation; singing–including love songs, lullabies, and shaman songs accompanied by malaka rattles–clarinet and pan-flute ensembles which are now predominantly a form of collective leisure; war songs expressing nostalgia for a Golden Age which is still seen as an ideal; and sung cycles which celebrate the union and intimacy with their surrounding world." The intimate, soft and reflective music includes a tule clarinet ensemble (A5-A6), a song for the ancestors announcing a great dance for the next day (A2-A3), a pan flute and scraped tortoise shell (A1), a nasal bamboo flute (A4), a bamboo flute (B1), a three-hole bone flute (B5), a five-hole block flute (B12), various songs (A7 and B2-B4), animal calls (B6-B10), and whistled language (B11).
