Sinopsis

This book chronicles the incredible life of Carlos Troyer, a man who befriended royalty and luminaries of their day, including Franz Liszt and President Theodore Roosevelt. Born in Germany in 1837, Troyer's early musical training led him on adventures as a musician and explorer throughout the American continents. His passion for understanding the indigenous peoples of South and Central America led him to live among the Zuni tribe in the southwestern United States. Spending over 30 years living with this ancient and secretive people, Troyer learned their esoteric tribal teachings and witnessed their sacred ceremonies, gaining profound knowledge of their unique culture and religious practices. His writings on the Zuni people are considered groundbreaking and provide an invaluable record of their traditions and beliefs. They were instrumental in changing views on Native American culture at a time when rampant stereotypes dominated society. Troyer's deep respect for the Zuni way of life and dedication to understanding their culture has left a lasting legacy, illuminating a path towards greater understanding and appreciation of Native American heritage.

Rese�a del editor

Excerpt from Indian Music Lecture; The Zu�i Indians and Their Music: An Address Designed for Reading at Musical Gatherings, Describing the Lives, Customs, Religions, Occult Practices, and the Surprising Musical Development of the Cliff Dwellers of the South West

The childlike simplicity of the man, the God-given right of belief in his own thoughts and convictions, unobtrusively disclosed in conversation with him; the pure and elevating thoughts which he utters, together with a spiritual yet powerful personality, make a meeting with him a thing to be coveted and afterward remembered.

Carlos Troyer has had a remarkable career. He started life as a musician. While his scientific fancies have taken him to the odd places of the earth, his great love of music still abides with him. Mr. Troyer was born in Mainz in 1837. His childhood was associa ted with a musical ambition. Having as his teachers the best musicians of Europe, he early mastered the violin and the piano. He had the friendship of both Jenny Lind and Franz Liszt and often met with Liszt to play over this great composer's piano music.
