To Make a Voice ~ Native Flute Lessons and Wisdom

No book quite like this has ever been written.... Though there are a few basic pointers on playing the Native American Flute, this book is not intended to be a tutorial manual, so don't buy it if you are seeking a 'how to play' songbook.  There are plenty of those.  This humble little book explores much more than 'how to play' the Native American flute. It is a total immersion into the lessons, wisdom and cultural meaning hidden deep within the sacred voice of all American Indian flutes, from an Indigenous perspective. And like 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull', this book transcends itself, and speaks to something much more profound. To Make a Voice is one part culture, one part history, one part music manual and one part Native American Spirituality. So if you have ever sought balance in your life.... if you have ever wanted to delve deeper into the heart of American Indian culture.... or if you have ever had an interest in gaining a more meaningful understanding of the Native American wooden flute.... then this book is for you. Take a journey with John Two-Hawks into the fullness of the Native American flute experience.... Best known as a Grammy® and Emmy nominated, Platinum Award winningRecording Artist, John Two-Hawks is also an author and activist. As awriter, John's style is to say more with less, so his books are nevercumbersome, but always deeply moving and profound. Two-Hawks hasauthored several books on Native American culture, and an autobiographyabout his personal triumph over having been severely abused as a child.All of John's music and writing is intended to reach into a hurtingworld, sharing the healing power of love, compassion and humility.
