iTunes Review
With more than 35 albums to his credit, R. Carlos Nakai is both prolific and multi-talented, having performed with a wide variety of artists in many styles, but Canyon Trilogy may be the purest representation of his work. Performed solo on a cedar flute with subtle echo added, and some tasteful multi-tracking in places, it’s easy to be swept away by these 17 songs, making it ideal for massage or meditation. The natural range of the cedar flute is limited compared to most other familiar wind instruments, but the soothing tone Nakai achieves and his masterful playing and level of imagination make the album work beautifully. Though he has a solid understanding of Native American music, Nakai is not a strict traditionalist; all of the songs here are original compositions. And still the music sounds as ancient as the hills and yet contemporary, giving it a rich complexity and organic flow that’s sure to resonate with listeners.
Customer Reviews
Nakai is always a 5 star
American native flute is just not played by anyone as well as Nakai.
Hear the stone breath and echo
FANTASTIC! It is calming and energizing. I close my eyes and am transported back to the red canyon walls and the cool Colorado river running over my toes. A perfect meditation of land and place. A timeless song of the soul.
A wonderful experience
I love this album. His understanding and play of the Native American flute is just amazing. It set me to purchase a flute and to begin to learn its play. Thank you for this artfull work.
