Wind Songs: Native American Flute Solos

Recipient of a GRAMMY nomination for 'Best Native American Music Album'!

John Two-Hawks, Lakota Native American flute virtuoso and pioneer delivers a masterpiece of all original Native American flute solos. These stunning 'first-take' improvisations not only showcase the effortless mastery Two-Hawks possesses with the Native flute, but the deeply sacred manner in which he calls these songs forth. From one of the most gifted and respected Native flute players of all time comes this remarkable musical offering that is sure to become a benchmark in the American Indian flute music genre. This is solo Native flute at its absolute best.

Two-Hawks says:
In bringing this music into existence, I called on nineteen different flutes. Great care was taken in the preparation for creating these songs. The smoke of prayers was offered, and as I entered into that sacred space with each flute, the flute and I became as one, and I could hear its song before it was breathed to life. Listen with your spirit to the voices of these ancient healing instruments. Be still, with your heart open, and all that is empty within your soul may be filled....
