More than flutes and drums

First Nations Composer Initiative:  They’re Native and This Is Their MusicThis may come as a shock. Okay, maybe not… But lots of people think only of flutes and drums when they hear the words “Native American Music.”

But shock or no shock, one thing is abundantly clear. “Native American Music” is about hip-hop, reggae, classical, electronic, pop, country, and experimental. Even, dare I say, flutes and drums.

FNCI conductorWhich is why the First Nations Composer Initiative (FNCI—pronounced “fancy”) exists. Under the auspices of the American Composers Forum, FNCI promotes, and no less significantly, provides a virtual gathering place for the artists and aficionados of contemporary and traditional American Indian music. Established in 2004, FNCI’s commitment is to celebrate the wealth of talent and diversity that comprises Indigenous musical expression.

I have a decent sounding cassette of what is largely Native American rock that I picked up at the Grand Canyon once. I'd better dig this out again.
