Was this piece composed in 2011?

These men were from my grandparents generation. How the “facts” change over a century. With our synthetic fibers, and automation this whole story has a different perspective. It has changed from “how we do it”, to “how they did it”, which makes this video much more interesting. Thank you for giving us a chance to watch useful items being made.

Then I also was surprised to discover that fishermen invented knitting. The word comes from "netting" for making fishing nets; out of "nettle."

No kidding? Horsehair is stronger than spectra?

A real home made....

This is wonderful on so many levels 🤗 The ingenuity, the skill[s] of these lads, the fact that this film has been preserved, the opportunity to step back into and in an instant, be immersed in the past 😁 Thank You so much for posting this 👏👏👏👏👏

It left out that they only used the tail hairs from male horses due to their never being doused with urine like from the female horses and the hairs were thus stronger from the males. The hairs from the manes were used from both sexes. It's the same with horse hair bows for violins. They only use the male tail hairs.

They were not a thing with Australian Station hands .Why not I have no idea

From the California mission days vaqueros, (Also called "los indios" because many were Native Americans.) had a system that marked the horses through the stages of becoming a "handy bridle horse." Yearlings, two-year-olds and all unbroken horses manes were roached, and their tails cut short. This provided hair for making cinches, mecates, and horsehair saddle pads. Vaqueros had a saying, "Nothing is better than horsehair on a horse." Nearly everything needed to produce a bridle horse came from the horse or the cows they were used to care for. When the new saddle horses were started, they started in a bosal, of usually rawhide but sometime horsehair was used. At this point the horse got a one inch cut out of its mane, just in front of the withers so that the inch section of short hair stuck straight up. This marked the horse as a "hackamore horse" and let the hands know its stage of progress and how to tack up and ride a particular horse. The next stage was the "two rein," and a second one-inch section of hair was cut short so now two short portions of mane stood straight up. This stage used a bosalita (very thin bosal) along with a very thin mecate rein. the horse carried the bit without a romal rein and no curb strap at first. As the horse accepted carrying the bit and advanced the romal was added and then a curb strap. The final stage is the bridle or was referred to as "straight up in the bridle." Often, they carried a bosalita and a "get down rope" which was a short mecate that had the loose end usually tucked under a belt or armitas (California chaps). These were used so the vaquero could lead and tie a horse if needed. (Bridle horses should never be tied or led by the reins.) These horses had no cuts in the mane hair and the manes were desired to grow long and full as were the tails. This tradition was used universally in California and on some western ranches still is.

Cowboys are actually Mexican but the Americans stole them because they have no culture of their own (their biggest original holiday is "Thanksgiving" which is a forced celebration consisting of a turkey-based meal). Cowboys don't exist, only Mexican VAQUEROS.

Talk about a lost art... that's one for sure ! The ability to do that grew out of need !

Ford truck name lariat as luxury.

Cowboy whittles a spinning whorl. Horsehair is thus spun by the spinning whorl into a thread. An assistant feeds the horsehair into the thread. From the thread a rope is made. Snakes hate short grass too- it irritates their belly- but apparently it's a myth. Perhaps the strong smell would deter them more- maybe they retain a memory of hoofed animals as dangerous. Horsehair doesn't irritate the horse. The Cinch is the belt for the saddle to stay attached btw.

These are not Americans, these are Mexicans. You can tell because they dress up more like movies depict cowboys, because to them it was a profitable trade for white tourists whereas Texan / American cowboys were actually y'know, working as cowboys. Rather than playing them in sideshows.

Fascinating. Never seen that before. Thanks for sharing

we can't rewind

Wow! Is there a full version of this by any chance?

Amazing! I will have it tonight on my radio show in Cyprus - as an interlude for the "Eternal Adam" by Jules Verne.

That was absolutely awesome!

Fabulous .........

Koyunbaba inspired?;)

Where was the Lariat???..All i saw them making was a Mecate,not a Lariat..

unwound Erik. but he was never wounded by suits (unless they were velvet) or insults (surely granfalloonnded)

A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE 🎼👍💖 GOD BLESS DAVID 💖 ALWAYS LOVED NEVER FORGOTTEN 💖

Reminds me of music they played at tandory restaurants I frequently went with my sons dad... #Flute

Flute players are cool salt of the earth type of people... Good folks. 💗👂👂👍👏

Do you have the whole recording of the track?

This is so beautiful. A wonderful interpretation.

I finally found this video. Whew...I saw it once years ago, and couldn't find it again. Thank you!!!

I was there. it was a pleasure atttending Terry Riley's comeback on stage after 30 years. His music remains as fascinating as before. He managed to be the same in renewing his inspiration using a different musical tradition and mixing it with a Western approach like no other composer has ever done.

Very beautiful!

Wonderful! !!!!

my dad told me my grandpa used to do this back 30 years ago. my grandpa lived in mexico (very poor) at that time.he died at 100 years old 27 years ago

This is great! I've been hooked on Christine Southworth since I heard Honey Flyers. Exciting music.

beautiful stuff!

Ms. Southworth are there more films about the Cowboys produced by Bray Studios?

i was searching video killed radio star

Amazing! Great mix of contemporary Clarinet Music und the sounds caught by the Ethnologist Hugh Tracey in the 50's. Thanks for posting this in YT.

Wow!!
