Hear it now

The Meditation Flute helps to bring you to the other side of the hustle and bustle of our modern paced blurr. First made in 1976. I was about to open the smaller holes on this new creation when I decided to see what I had and I'm glad I did. Pulled off the market for many years, it is now back. It has an ancient Middle Eastern story telling anointing. And is great to set moods in theatrical presentations.

This DVD teaches the basic principles of improvising on exotic scales.
The Meditation Flute in not taught specifically on the how to Dvd. But it is helpful.

What You Are Saying

Dear Erik:
The flutes arrived, they are great instruments.
It is something to get away from the major scale.
The meditation flute is really amazing. Thank you.

'Dear Erik,
I just received the meditation flute. At first I have to admit, I was a skeptic of the quality and sound of a bamboo flute.
Well I am hooked for life. The sound quality is quite remarkable and also the scale is very unique. Thank you for your
quality flutes. Happy tunes,
Matthew Powers, Baraboo, Wisconsin

"I am a sucker for exotic instruments, especially flutes. They don't come much more exotic than the Egyptian and Meditation flutes by Erik and his apprentice Leo. Both of these are beautifully finished with middle-eastern carving, and special bindings to set off the ends. The narrower bore of the Egyptian gives it a very sweet sound, particularly the second octave. By contrast, the wider bore of the Mediation flute gives it a rich, warm tone.
The scale of the Meditation flute is very unusual - almost impressionistic, like a Debussy piece. This makes it a very creative instrument, ideal for getting out of musical ruts.
Thanks Erik for making these great instruments available at a reasonable price.'

Erik, 'The Meditation flute is awesome: I could not stop playing!
It was sweet and gentle from the beginning. I had no trouble getting clean, clear notes. I am enjoying your flutes very much and am looking forward to playing the Oriental flute I ordered from you.

This is an exotic scale, very melodic. By going up & down the scale it will sound good.
This is like the Minor, Arabian and Oriental flutes taught on our DVD & Video.
