Called Upstairs - Moravian Inuit Music in Labrador

Called Upstairs explores the transformation, under centuries of Inuit stewardship, of a music practice introduced by Moravian missionaries in the late 1700s. A story of adaptation and mediation, the book presents a chronicle of Inuit leadership and agency in the face of colonialism.
