Native American Flute

by Emiliano Campobello

During a shamanic ceremony at the cusp of 2005, the magic of the indigenous flutes was awoken in the heart of Emiliano Campobello. Since that moment, these flutes have become his friends and teachers, and he has become a passionate performer and instructor on the Native American, Japanese "shakuhachi", and ancient Anasazi flutes. He teaches private and group lessons and workshops, guiding others to connect with these sacred instruments and themselves. He has performed opening  ceremonies for the Hopi Eagle Dancers, Navajo/Dine Medicine teachers, the Sayaka Inka Condor Dancers, Shi Nen Kai (Japanese New Year), and 9/11 Peace Concerts.

Rockapelli

Emiliano began recording songs with his friend Kevin Donoho, a guitarist and fellow flute player in 2009. Under the name Rockapelli, they created a magical collection of songs that have been enjoyed by a small circle of friends and fans. It is a sound journey with rockin' rhythms, soaring flutes, and the natural sounds of creeks, birds, Mother Ocean and the songs of whales. Rockapelli is currently undergoing a transfusion of new energy and expertise by composer/percussionist Chris James Thomas, and the newly remixed and mastered Rockapelli will be available soon! Here is a taste for your ears and eyes of the new  version of Rockapelli's song Apotheosis:

From the first concept until its installation on the wall, I had complete trust in the artists. Mary and Emiliano instinctively knew what was needed for my office. Through few conversations, they managed to identify my artistic inclinations/preferences, took to heart my practice philosophy, and came up with a painting that fit so right with what my staff and I do everyday. Hamster tree has been part of our "arsenal" for treating children as young as 6 months old. We use the painting as a distraction for apprehensive children (instead of using TV or computer games), as a focus point for distracted children or ones with special needs, and as a soothing tool for stressful times. Many times a day, we would ourselves looking at "the Tree", taking a deep breath, getting lost in the beautiful perspective or just gazing at a furry hamster, and finding peace. This is an important aspect in a pediatric dental practice where stress, noise, and chaos are prevalent. The children in particular love the details and vivid colors in the painting. A 6 year-old girl, while waiting for her abscessed tooth to go numb, went over to "the Tree" to study it, then went back to the chair for the extraction of the tooth (her first ever) all the while talking about critters. We have had "The Tree" for a year now and countless children and their parents have enjoyed it.
