I have occasionally been doing flute presentations at schools, for second grade and up. These presentations are a combination of story-telling and music performance. I select the three main flute types that I am most familiar with: 1) the Native American flute 2) the Japanese shakuhachi flute 3) the Anasazi flute There’s magic in the [...]
The AC-33

I bought a Roland AC-33 acoustic guitar amplifier this week. To be used with my flutes. Wow, what a nifty handy thing it is. It runs on 8 AA batteries, it has stereo speakers, and it is light enough that I could lug it around on the subway if necessary. It sounds crystal clear. I [...]

A Law of Attraction flute story
Posted in Flute Music, tagged cherry, dragon flute, law of attraction, maple, Miguel Medina, Native American Flute, Singing Tree Flutes on June 10, 2011 | 1 Comment »
I browse eBay for Native American flutes on a regular basis. For some time I had been noticing the flute maker Miguel Medina of Singing Tree Flutes. His flutes looked very artistic, streamlined, with all manner of elegant totems, carved animals, and abstract figures. I saw horses, lions, and once even a purple heart dragon [...]

This is the eleventh flute CD, called Cantos. The singing flute. Now not to worry: only one song actually uses the human voice (mine).The track in question is The Lodge. You might want to skip that one. On this album I have been concentrating on slightly repetitive patterns and putting them into delayed parallel tracks. [...]
Breathing sound

When playing the flute there is a connection with an invisible bank of music. The music, its feelings, its vistas, gets channeled in a sense. Music is manifesting in sound, but of course already exists before it manifests. This is a key point. There is no method here, no how-to. It’s a gift, I didn’t [...]

Art is the activity most open to God’s influence. Here is CD #10 with flute music: Episodes. The new development is that I have a good number of tracks on this CD where flute is accompanied by guitar. That changes the style of the music drastically. For example, have a listen to “They Came from [...]

Flow and vibration

A wind instrument, like a flute, creates sound from the air coming out of the lungs, hitting a sharp edge that changes the flow of the air dramatically. The flow comes first, the vibration of air making sound comes second. A string instrument, like a guitar, creates sound by setting a string vibrating. The vibration [...]
