This book is a summation of R. Carlos Nakai's years as an educator, performer, and student of the Native American flute. Part One includes discussions on tunings, fingerings, performance technique, tablature, style, history, standard notation, traditional ornaments, plus a section on the care and maintenance of the flute. Part Two includes sixteen transcriptions of songs from Nakai's recordings. Part Three is an analysis of Nakai's role in Native American culture as a recording artist and performer by ethnomusicologist David P. McAllester. More than a performance guide, this book is an important source on the Native American flute and a concise review of the career and artistry of one of the most imporant ethnic artists in America.
