What reading level is The Hopi Indians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


The notation is chromatic, not possible to be ex- pressed on any instrument save the violin, or the five- hole transverse flutes which later accompanied the singing. These flutes were played in unison on the octave above the voices, and their shrill, harsh notes marred the singing. In general effect the music is minor, but frequently major motives of great beauty spring out of dead-level monotonous minors. Some- times a major motive is followed by a minor counter- part of the same. There is muc
...h slurring, and an occasional reduplication comes in with great effect. A number of songs are monotonous, with once in a while a vigorous movement. The closing song is spirited and may truly be called beautiful. It con- sists of several legato verses, each closing with a turn, a rapid vibration of the rattle, and a solemn refrain. In structure and melody it resembles a Christian hymn. The music reminds one of the Gregorian MESA FOLK OF HOPILAND 105 chants, and to the listener some of the motives seemed quite equal to those upon which Handel built his great oratorios.
