WINDS OF DEVOTION CD

performed by R. Carlos Nakai and Nawang Khechog, produced and arranged by Peter Kater

The healing music of two great traditions is beautifully melded by Grammy nominees Nakai and Khechog. From opposite sides of the world, two rich traditions in healing music meet in one beautiful album: Winds of Devotion. Acclaimed Native American flutist R. Carlos Nakai and Tibetan flute virtuoso Nawang Khechog come together in a cross-continental prayer for compassion, wisdom, healing and universal love. These Grammy-nominated artists offer you four peaceful and uplifting compositions of healing music that express their shared reverence for the divine spirit.

Nakai and Khechog share a harmonious rapport based on common dedication to the meditative path of music. Their flutes resonate with ancient indigenous sounds that spark a deep remembrance in the heart of the modern listener. Blending sacred chant, prayer, and the timeless beauty of the wooden flute, Winds of Devotion is an unforgettable experience from two masters of ancient healing music. Ideal for meditation, massage, body work, tai chi, or yoga. Features vocals by Chris White, with David Darling on cello, Wade Mathews on bass, and Geoffrey Gordon on percussion. Produced and arranged by Peter Kater.

R. Carlos Nakai is the world's premier performer of the Native-American flute with more than 4 million albums sold. Since 1983 he has released more than 35 albums and has received seven Grammy nominations. In addition to international solo appearances, he has worked with guitarist William Eaton, flutist Paul Horn, and composers James DeMars and Philip Glass.

A Grammy nominee and recipient of multiple awards, he is best known for his top-selling albums from Sounds True and his performances with Laurie Anderson, Kitaro, and many other renowned musicians.
