Gary Stroutsos - Songs for Leena
Improvisations on a Hopi Long Flute

Gary Stroutsos honours the Hopi Tribe with solo improvisations on a replicated leena. Featuring the plaintive and haunting sounds of the Hopi long flute, these pieces are inspired by the landscapes of the American Southwest, and the people who have lived there since time immemorial
