Voices of the Mountain CD: Traditional Mi'Kmaq Flute and Stories

David Sanipass - Lone Bear - has been making and playing flute for 20 years or more. The Mi’kmaq Nation is more than 20,000 years old; they have been called Micmac for the last 300 years. Voices of the Mountain stories/songs not only give us insights into the history of a people, but they teach us through the voices of our ancestors how life should be lived and celebrated.

"Most of the Music on this recording is played on one flute that was gifted to me by my Grandfather. This flute is one of the most special gifts that I have ever received and will always be treasured and played with great respect for my grandfather who has passed on to the spirit world." Lone Bear
