Its combination of two flute really resonated with many of you. Since it's not yet time for a new download we'd thought we'd remind everyone that it's still there, waiting for you to listen to it again. And if you missed it last time, nows your chance to hear what all the buzz was about.   Solstice Song was inspired by this winter's Solstice, which occured at 12:47 p.m. EST on Monday, December 21st, 2009. It features two flutes, an octave apart, made by Colyn and Kitty of Woodland Voices flutes, with matching wood burnings of ravens in a bare winter tree. Also, don't forget Quiet Journey and all the other Soctt August videos that are available on YouTube. Not a Member?
