FREE DOWNLOAD

Every quarter I include a Free MP3 Download in a newsletter and this Fall is no exception. This quarter's download is a song for NAF called Red Mountain.

 Red Mountian

Red Mountain was recorded live in concert in Ashland, OR on November 6, 2010. Performed on a Red Rock F# NAF made of Flame Boxelder it was inspired by the mountain that towered over the Zion Flute School last year. Listen to the song, read more about the flute and watch a bonus video on the Red Mountain page.

Also, don't forget Quiet Journey and all the other my other videos that are available on the Cedar Mesa Music video page.


 

VIDEO FLUTE BLOG

As regular readers of my newsletters and blog know I frequently post blogs about flutes. These typically have some description of the flute, some photos and some sound samples. I thought I'd start something new this time. Rather than write a blog I thought I would do these videos instead.

To get started I picked a High E NAF made by Butch Hall. You can view it on the video page of cedarmesa.com or just click the image below
