Native American Classical: The Lakota Music Project of the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra

The first time I heard Native American Music was on a Pete Seeger album when I was in high school. Later I heard the Native American flute player R. Carlos Nakai whose artistry was being marketed in a “new age” context. I had known for some years that American composer Charles Wakefield Cadman (1881-1946), famed for his song, based on “indian themes” which was famously conscripted for use in a…

Native American flute music is a treasured art form, with a rich history that dates back thousands of years. It is a unique art, with intricate melodies and rhythms that evoke ancient spirituality and an unbreakable bond with nature. The flute serves as a symbol of the deep connections the Native American tribes had with the natural world. It is often said that the soul of the flute comes from the soul of the player, and that each note carries with it a message that speaks to a specific aspect of nature. The history of Native American flute music is closely tied to the history of the Native American people themselves. The flute was used in religious ceremonies, tribal gatherings, and as a communication tool. Its haunting melodies could carry a message for miles, and it was believed that, as the notes floated through the air, they were infused with the very essence of nature. In the early days of Native American flute music, the instrument was made from natural materials such as reeds or bones, and it had a very simple design. Over time, the design of the flute evolved, and Native American craftsmen began to incorporate intricate patterns and designs into the instrument. The Native American flute has been played by a number of well-known musicians, including Carlos Nakai, R. Carlos Nakai, and Robert Tree Cody. These artists have helped to popularize the instrument and have brought it to a wider audience. The popularity of the Native American flute has continued to grow over the years. Today, it is played in concerts, on recordings, and at festivals throughout the world. People of all ages and backgrounds have been captivated by the beauty and simplicity of this ancient art form. In conclusion, the history of Native American flute music is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Native American people. It is a reminder of the deep connections that we all share with nature and of the power of music to transcend time and space. As we continue to listen to and appreciate the beauty of Native American flute music, we are enriching ourselves and preserving a vital part of human culture.

Anima Musica & R. Carlos Nakai

7/23

Facebook has been muting parts

(only parts) of my original improvisations

on the Native American Style Flute…

I say “original” but really, when playing

a 5 note scale on an instrument as

popular as the NASF, almost anything

you can play…any notes in any order…

has been played many times before,

and undoubtedly recorded more than

once. R Carlos Nakai, whose music

made the NASF popular in the New

Age era, surely explored all the

possible melodies in a minor pentatonic

scale in his long recording carrier.

But just because a snippet of melody

in the middle of someone’s “music

from the heart” happens to sound like

something out of the Nakai catalog

(or anyone else’s NASF music)

it should not set off Facebook’s

copyright violation sniffer robot…

That’s not how NASF music works.

But then I guess that is too subtle

for a robot to understand. Maybe

too subtle for the Facebook engineers

who wrote the robot. And I am certain

that whoever submitted their NASF

music to Facebook’s sniffer, did not

intend to stifle anyone’s music from

the heart. That is most certainly

not how NASF music works.
