Crawford ii JONES, MARY JANE, M.A., AUGUST, 2010 MUSIC REVIVAL AND COMMUNITY: THE HISTORY AND PRACTICES OF A NATIVE AMERICAN FLUTE CIRCLE (64 PP.) Director of Thesis: Terry E. Miller Much knowledge about the Native American flute was lost following the suppression of Native American musical traditions by the United States government around the turn of the twentieth century. A renewal of interest in the instrument occurred in the latter part of the twentieth century, but few knew how to play the flute stylistically. As flute enthusiasts began meeting to learn and play together, flute circles emerged throughout North America and around the world. This thesis examines one such circle in Northeast Ohio and offers insight into the views and motivations of its members of Native descent. The practices of the flute circle and the relationships that formed among its members are investigated, as well as the reasons why these people have chosen to connect with their roots by means of playing the flute.

  • Breath Flute Developer's Guide
    Breath Flute Project Guide Page 1 of 63 Printed August 10, 2018 at 2:31 PM Breath Flute Developer’s Guide This document provides information and guidance for those who wish to fabricate Breath Flutes, as well as developers who wish to modify the design of the Breath Flute for their own purposes. The Instrument The Breath Flute is a wind instrument that lets players with little or no musical experience create deep, resonant music using only their breath. The design inherits from musical instruments of many cultures, including the Australian didgeridoo, overtone flutes from Slovakia, and the Native American flute. It is ideal for community music gatherings since it can be played solo, in small groups, or as a large ensemble providing harmonic and rhythmic support for other musical instruments. It also has a role in music therapy, therapeutic music-making, and a wide range of personal breath practices such as yoga and meditation. Breath Flutes are accessible to players with physical limitations, since they have no finger holes and require no finger dexterity. Most players with no musical experience can create music in the first few minutes and experience the physiological benefits associated with resonant breathing the first time they play the instrument. Most Breath Flutes have a short headjoint section combined with a long body tube. The headjoint is about 5 in / 13 cm long and can be 3D-printed using free, open-source software. The body tube can be as simple as a length of standard pipe, or as complex as you wish to make it (decoration, curved designs, holes for tuning, etc.) The headjoint press-fits onto the body tube.
