The following are the first two songs I have brought to a condition where I feel I can share them. I hope you enjoy them but they won't appeal to everyone.

My music is very mellow at this point. The Native American Flute which I play in "The River Flows" was my inspiration for getting back into music. The long tones and gentle tones of this instrument suggested a meditative state to me. Soon after I got a flute, I began playing it as a meditative device and after finding a few melody lines, I began to want to record my efforts.

Although I believe this instrument truely comes into it's own as a solo instrument, my performance on it is not at the level of the greats like R. Carlos Nakai and so I began to feel it might be possible to add some additional instruments like the guitar. Soon I could hear the strings in the background and so I bought a keyboard and began taking lessons in July of 2001. What you hear in these snippets are the results of my work over the last couple of years.

All songs written by, performed by, recorded by and produced by R. Frank Louden.
