Living Music, Sacred Flute

Peter Phippen

Peter Phippen is best known, perhaps, as a master of the flute - actually many different types of flutes, including those of Native American origin. That is, in fact, what earned him a Grammy nomination back in 2010. But Peter is all about all music, so you'll also frequently encounter him rocking out on his bass and whatever other form of music and instrumentation the moment calls for. In particular, his ability to improvise soul-deep on his flutes is known to transport listeners young and old.

I love Peter's music, so soothing, fragile and deeply touching. I agree on his philosophy that music is all around you, it is in the universe, and we only try to channel it by playing!.. Liesbet from The Netherlands

Have been listening to Peter Phippen's music for over 30 years. He is a gifted artist who has truly become a master of his craft. His knowledge of world flutes and their histories is unmatched. I believe that plays a part in what gives Peter the “permission” to bring the souls of each special flute to life. Phippen said in the interview... the music is already in the universe - and he is just a conduit. When I listen to his music words like mesmerizing, beautiful, soothing, mystic and spiritual come to mind. He is truly gifted. We can only wonder what amazing projects are yet to come.
