CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Flutist Mary Youngblood's CD brims with feminine beauty and Native American spirituality. With airy flute, hand drums, percussion, guitar, and the gorgeous vocals of Joanne Shenandoah, Heart of the World spins a wonderfully folkish, uplifting tribute to life on earth. "Loon Dance" sings with a light vibrancy, gracefully mixing the repetition of beautiful Native American melody and acoustic guitar. "Yuba" runs as slowly and sensually as the rivers it pays homage to. The precious value of this recording lies not only in its enchanting embrace of Native American culture, nature, and love, but the divine music it creates from simple, natural instruments. So much New Age music reaches for grandiose heights with electronic instrumentation that ends up sounding calculated, arrogant, and corny on CD. What a refreshing gift to receive music that's made by instruments grown from the land and played by an ensemble with a heart. Thank you, Mary Youngblood. --Karen Karleski Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThe lady sings of heart....and captures my soul curious66 | Wisconsin | 12/02/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "Having just been introduced to Native American music...i have found a wonderful artist.. a woman who captures the heart and soul of all .....no matter what their background..listen to the changing atmosphere..one track to another..read of the thoughts behind the music...the reasons she performs it...learn the woman...and hence the music....listen as it plays with your heart....let yourself flow from peace...to drama...to lightheartedness.....to solemn thoughts....she will touch you...easily....she captures my imagination...and my heart...." Native Flute Virtuoso dusty moore | Annapolis Maryland | 12/01/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "Mary's exceptional talent on Native American Flute is unsurpassed by her contemporaries. The song "Unrequited" even has a hint of Irish flavor. Coupled with Joanne Shenandoah on vocals, this album is sure to please both those familiar and those unfamiliar with this remarkable instrument. And there is no description for the enchanting sound of her double flute playing. With a history that stretches back over 3000 years, the Native Flute has found a new foothold for the next mellinium with Mary Youngblood." Truly a flutist who expresses the native spirit Robert J Robison | Watkinsville, GA United States | 10/25/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have actually met Mary Youngblood. I attended a concert and workshop that she gave. Her music is inspiring. Her ability is amazing. Her songs that of the great spirit that inspires her. I have both of her cds (one signed by her) and can't wait for her next one. I love her use of just the flute with little background (usually a guitar and or other voices). It is pure and makes me remember my native heritage. It makes me proud to be native american."
