"Beautiful, inspiring and tranquil. Track #7 is a touching tribute to Lori Piestewa, the first woman killed in combat in Iraq. The blend of voices in both Navajo and English and the flute is brilliant. Radmilla Cody has done the Navajo Nation proud with this CD."

A welcome and strongly recommended addition
