Native American Music

Hi! I'm new to this forum, and came across it looking for information on Native American music(primarily instruments) and how they are used in the religion and their rituals/ceremonies. I found a little information on the drum, but not much else on the flutes or rattles etc. If anyone has any help that would be wonderful.

See if you can use something here. There seems to be a lot of books on Native American Music, which you probably can borrow from the library:

Thanks a lot Phoenix, I've been meaning to go to my public library.. Thing is I got a fine and no money to pay it! Very Happy

I might go down there later today though, make copies of pages and such. Thanks again!

It's my impression that drums and rattles were ceremonial/magical, but native flutes were more personal objects and were more for personal entertainment and courting than for ritual.
