Description
A sense of sacred space begins wherever you happen to be. For many of the indigenous peoples of North America, that is the forest. This album seeks to honor the forest world and all the beings that live there. The music was directly inspired by sacred wooded places that I visit regularly, including Blackwater Refuge near Cambridge, Maryland; White Oak Canyon in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia; Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland; and our own backyard.

REVIEWS
"Ron Warren's debut CD is a rare pleasure. Filled with inspired percussion, expertly played flute, and some pretty cool effects..." Jeff Ball, NAMA winning flutist
"I like the variety of tempos and instrumentation on the CD and the use of the extended scale for interesting and unpredictable melodies. Too many CD's get one listen and then a place on the shelf. His gets a repeat listening!"
Joan Johannes, Voice of the Wind (International Native American Flute Association Journal)
"Gazebo is my favorite track and is regularly featured on my online station. Brilliant...Radiant...Sparkling."
Jada Greenway, Acoustic Paradise, live365.com
about Ron...
Ron Warren began a transforming journey with the Native American flute less about five years ago. This journey began simply and tentatively as a way to honor his father's ancestors. Inspired by the vision of artists such as R.C. Nakai, Coyote Oldman, Jeff Ball and Mark Holland, Ron soon began his own search for a music which honors the flute tradition but also welcomes this beautiful instrument into the 21st century. He has been guided by the flutes themselves and by spending time in special sacred places like Blackwater Refuge, White Oak Canyon and Brookside Gardens. The flute has become for him not only a primary means of artistic and self expression but a pathway to meditation and healing.
Ron has had the privilege of performing with Native American Music Award winning flutist Jeff Ball at Musical Echoes Native Flute gathering in Fort Walton Beach, Florida and at the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage. He has also taken part in a concert and educational program taped for overseas broadcast by Voice of America. He performs regularly at powwows and festivals throughout the U.S.
