Description

Composer's Note:

Wind Songs is comprised of two pieces: the solo work Phantom Breeze (for solo flute) shows the struggle for dominance between the conventional note pattern of the Native flute's scale and the interlopers (neighboring tones), and It Was the Wind, a setting of an evocative Navajo text for soprano and flute.
