of the flute.Peaceful, beautiful, mentally refreshing, music one can relate to.Liz WolfNative flute music in its purest beauty.From the first moment I heard the first sound, I was mesmerized.When I play it quietly, it provides an uplifting background music that softens life around me.When I turn up the volume, it goes deep into my soul and helps me think about everything that's going on in my life.Hawks makes his flute sound like nature, you hear the birds chirping out of his music, you hear the water rippling that he is telling about, you feel life and if you don't have a deep love for nature, you certainly can hear how John feels about it.This CD is all about the beauty of life and appreciation for the Creator's gifts to us.Please log in to email this artist.President of Louisiana

something to like on this Album.The flute line soars with various flutters, barks, and over blows.Again this is another piece with a very modern contemporary and upbeat feel.Opening with claps of thunder against a flute solo and the chant of the human voice and the call of the crow.This dreamy piece is carried along with a very pleasing percussive foundation.This is one of the favorite tracks of the author and is definitely one you can tap your toe to.The Didgeridoo accompaniment is a favorite section of this track and is executed brilliantly by Charlie Myers.It is the favorite track of the artist.This is an old Comanche Hymn that Twohawks has redone.Comanche woman and has sung it to his grandchildren as a lullaby.In preparing for the CD he decided to call the Kiowa nation who had no

s_265.Ads are not an endorsement by the blog author.UPDATE ON THE 6 NATIONS CALEDONIA LAND RECLAMATION!Each section of the Circle of Nations newsletter is written 'facing' one of the four sacred winds, beginning with the east, then the south, west and finally the north.It is to teach and to help us to focus and find the center.Native Circle website in the same spirit.The show is everything I dreamed it would be, and I am so glad that so many wonderful people got to experience it with me.What this means is that there will always be things one does that another does differently.Some bodies are equipped for vegetarianism, where others would not be healthy as vegetarians.This applies not only to what we eat, but to how we respond to the world we live in, the choices we make, the people we like, our chosen spiritual path and so on.In this way, we can avoid becoming too narrow with our thoughts and our daily choices, and remain open to possibilities for growth and enlightenment.It is about chocolate just as much as it is about broccoli!Perspective is a powerful tool for achieving balance, and thus peace and contentment in life.When we are able to step back, take a wider look, a look from farther back, we are able to better able to understand things.We have just come off of our first full weekend of "Come to the Fire" concerts and it was absolutely incredible!!Was wonderful meeting so many of you for the first time and seeing old familiar faces.There is so much to tell you all this month.Retreat two weeks ago and it was one of our most memorable weekends.Please watch for the new dates, we will post them soon.We are going to open an additional weekend in 2006 for the Mending Medicine Retreat.Since the third weekend in Oct is full, we have decided to open an additional weekend the last weekend in Oct.We will buy a goat, some trees and some bees for some needy families.Preserving the old ways....Joseph Marshall III last night.We talked about how important it is that we preserve and retain these old skills, customs and concepts.For with it goes not only the skill to make such items, but the philosophies and concepts which contribute so greatly to the culture and traditional thought of a people.We may even conjure up images of Indians on horseback, using old handmade bows and arrows.But what most would not know is that the bow and the arrow was, and is a great teacher.Much more is learned as more bows and arrows are made, and as they are used.It is my belief, and the belief of many others, that the wisdom of these old ways may very well be a key to our ultimate survival on this planet.Equally important is the fact that the world we live in today is in dire need of the values, morals and spiritual insight which is found in these old ways.Are you sure you want to delete this entry, along with all its comments?The "A with the arrow logo" is a service mark of ARTISTdirect, Inc. |
