Description

Regarded as the world’s foremost Native American flutist, R. Carlos Nakai (1946- ) was among the first to meld the ancestral sounds of his Navajo-Ute heritage with contemporary music and electronic instrumentation. He has sold millions of records since the 1980s and is widely regarded as a pioneer in the new age and contemporary instrumental genres. Most of his music evokes the spirit of tribal history and culture, as well as desert landscapes, with new age elements.
