A song from our heart

Greetings from an Irish Italian from Brooklyn. By chance I heard her music. I purchased her album," This Child." That cut along is in my top ten. Her voce and the musicale arrangements are incredible. The sound of vastness and the music of search hit me like a rock. She may have been singing about Inuits, but I felt it was about us as a race. The human race. December 5, 2006

A big Fan!

Hey aglukark fans, this album is a must have. Though it came out in Sept. '96 I still listen to it over and over and over again. It's album I cannot get tired of. The same goes for the next album and the newest album, which I'm just starting to break in. Get this album, the songs talk of a lot of different stories and sometimes it feels like ms. aglukark knows exactly what you're going through and shares it with you through her music. It's very touching, and peaceful. October 10, 2003

Essential Native Music

I Love this CD and know that Amazon has done the world a great service carrying her music and making it acessable for everyone. I know Susan, and it was her specialness that made me look up her music at amazon. I was shocked to see how famous she is In Canada as this woman is so gentle and kind and warm and down to earth as a person, and has done remarkable things besides singing and recording... shes a great blessing! I hope she keeps recording forever. Enjoy! This is a good gift CD too, and good for children to listen to. October 27, 2002

This child by S. Aglukark - a CD that goes to heart

By chance I heart her music in Tillsonburg not far from Toronto in the Micheal-Collection of Inuit Art.
This Music had a deeo impression on me. The texts combained with rythm goes under your skin.
Not only are the texts about common topics, they also describe the feelings of the people so far north the place I come from.
In many songs I find myself, especially in "this child" and "Don't suffer from silence".
As well as other CD's from Susan Aglukark I can only highly recommend the CD to everyone who really like to listen!! to music. October 24, 2002

Must Hear!

This is a beautifully produced album from a part of the world we don't hear from often. I have listened to many indigenous performers from North America and many of these performances are marred by an amateurish production. Not so on this cd. It is non-commercial yet very attractive to a non-Inuit listener. Susan is a talented songwriter and singer. October 18, 2002
