Hiawatha
CD 01
Hiawatha’s Wedding Feast
01. Introduction
02. You shall hear how Pau-Puk-Keewis
03. And when all the guests had finished
04. He was dressed in shirt of doe skin
05. First he danced a solemn measure
06. Then they said to Chibiabos
07. “Onaway! Awake, beloved!”
08. Thus the gentle Chibiabos
09. Very boastful was Iagoo
10. And they said “O good Iagoo”
The Death of Minnehaha
11. Introduction
12. O the long and dreary winter!
13. Into Hiawatha’s wigwam
14. Forth into the empty forest
15. In the wigwam with Nokomis
16. Over snow fields waste and pathless
17. And he rushed into the wigwam
18. Then they buried Minnehaha
19. “Farewell,” said he, “Minnehaha”
CD 02
Hiawatha’s Departure
01. Introduction
02. Spring had come wit all its splendour
03. From his wanderings far to eastward
04. Only Hiawatha laughed not
05. By the shore of Gitche Gumee
06. From the brow of Hiawatha
07. It was neither goose nor diver
08. Then the joyous Hiawatha
09. Then the generous Hiawatha
10. Then the Black-Robe chief, and prophet
11. Heavy with the heat and silence
12. From his place rose Hiawatha
13. On the shore stood Hiawatha
14. And they said “Farewell for ever”
