from the wiki: On this tape are multi-tracked recordings of Rothenberg singing his "total translations" based on some of the 17 "Horse Songs" in the blessingway of Frank Mitchell, a Navaho from Chinle, Arizona who lived from 1881 to 1967.
another entry (from a library resource online): Jerome Rothenberg revolutionized how Indigenous poetry was translated by pioneering "total translation". Rather than treating oral traditions as written texts, he aimed to translate the "whole-poem-in-performance", capturing active ingredients like melody, words, rhythm, and non-semantic vocables (meaningless sounds that provide rhythmic shape).
