INTRODUCTION
The Native American Indian flute is a very special instrument. In days of old, it was made for love music.
Generally played for courting and special tunes, its revival is beginning to have the flavor of a more contemporary sound
today.
The native flute has a haunting, soulful sound that penetrates and permeates the world around it, letting its presence be
known.
At times, it can imitate the cries of night animals, hooting of an owl, sea gull, or merely the expression of one with a
lonely heart that has something to say -- mournful and sad, at times, but full of love, hope, yearning and beauty beyond
expression.
Resurrected from the past comes the Native American Indian flute to enhance your meditation--heighten your spiritual
sensitivity. So, lean back, relax, and enjoy!
HOMAGE -- The Concept
The word "homage" generally means
to have a reverent respect -- acknowledgment of a tribute or expression of humbleness to a higher source.
The music of HOMAGE is based upon the interplay of the physical and spiritual forces prevalent in the world at
large, and one person's perception and interpretation of them.
HOMAGE -- The Music
The consciousness of the Great Spirit and the dynamic physical/spiritual interaction in the world is perceived musically thru the musical interpretation of flute and nature.

WINGS OVER WATER
Living wind and swirling water provide a natural background over which the cries of sea gulls are heard
and the flute's imitating sounds of a high, soaring sea gull. Gaze into the foggy distance as the misty ocean's endless
roar and breaking surf create a background for the power and sensuous beauty of the Native American Indian flute.
MOUNTAIN MEADOWS
Visualize in your mind the gush of babbling, cool water bouncing and jumping its way over obstacles in
its way as it flows endlessly downstream from a high mountain origin. Smell the fresh pine scented breeze of a mountain
meadow in spring as the air is punctuated with winged creatures and the flute's imitating sounds -- all in balance and
harmony.
FIREGAZER
Warm, glowing background campfire to crackle the spirit and drive the chill from your bones. Flames
dance in concert to the flute's vibrant orchestration.
MIDNIGHT MEMORIES
Thoughts recollected in the quiet -- moments of pensive tranquility bring to mind the tender.
DREAMS
After the sun has set, drift into dreams during the drowsy hours and share the visions painted vivid
when the Great Mysteries of life cry for explanation.
AS I LEAVE THE EARTH
A spiritual ascending, loosened from its earthly bonds to float among the heavens and around the realm
of the infinite.
HOMAGE
Be in touch with your surroundings as a cedar flute speaks of reverence for all life and immortality.
CELEBRATION
Exuberant, spontaneous expression of inner joy and thanksgiving.
EARTH SPIRIT
Winged creatures amidst joyful spring celebration of the birth and growth of Mother Earth's gentle
rhythms and the harmonious blending of bird song imitations by the flute yielding man's presence to the Great Circle-of-Life.
PURIFICATION
THUNDER CALLING
SONG OF UNITY
Quiet, soft patter of cleansing rain showers and
the low, guttural sounds of the flute in solemn utterances. Close your eyes to the pulsing patter of rain drops pelting
the leaves as the low, rhythmic sounds of the flute recreate the pond creatures sheltered in the nearby Cattails and
underbrush.
Settle down by candlelight in your quiet, cozy
surroundings during a violent spring thunderstorm. Feel the lightning almost touch you from the turbulent skies and
endless, random patterns of rainfall as the flute calls and the heavens answer in return.
More than percussion, the rhythmic beat of the drum, symbolic of the natural, periodic tempo of the
heart embellished with the flute signifying harmony and unity of mind, body and spirit.
