  • Music you won't soon forget
    author: Fredrica Bergeron

    Jan Michael's Peaceful Journey is just as the name implies, peaceful and relaxing. There has never been a more beautiful instrument than the Native American flute, nor an artist with such wonderful skill.

  • I've found peace in this music
    author: Roger West

    I walk down the lush fir and fern lined trails next the waterfalls, listining to “Peaceful Journey”. It take away all the stress of the day and bring me pack to the harmany of nature. Thank you very much Jan Michael Looking Wolf Reibach 'Great Music'

  • A musical trek that takes us to calm, serene places
    author: Joe Ross

    A member of the Grande Ronde Tribe in Oregon, flutist Jan Michael Looking Wolf Reibach plays contemplative Native American music on his first (“Peaceful Journey”) and third (“One Heart One Spirit”) albums inspired by the hawks, rain, wolves, moon, owls, ocean, sunrise, sunset, horses, beauties of nature, and his ancestors. His albums contain both traditional and contemporary pieces that allow him to demonstrate his proficiency and skill with a number of instruments and styles. While always keeping the flute in the forefront, some pieces have been arranged with guitar, drum, rattle, and synthesizer. Some are presented only with solo flute. On “Peaceful Journey,” liner notes are minimal, but three of the twelve compositions (Sacred Rain, Coastal Dream, Thunder People) are credited to others. The overall musical trek is one that takes us to calm, serene places. Reibach’s restful music is an honest, uncompromising vision that makes clear statements. He plays with depth of feeling in each note, and the emotional resonance of his statements bridge all cultural boundaries. “One Heart, One Spirit,” Looking Wolf’s April, 2004 release, offers fifteen tracks -- seven solo pieces and eight with acoustic guitar and/or piano accompaniment. I was happy to see the CD’s jacket acknowledge three flute makers (Roger McGee, Odell Borg, and Jeff Calavan). Eleven different handmade flutes were used, including drones (double flutes), river-reed, and an ancient bone whistle replica. Guest artists (Michael Carno, Harri Dancing Raven Reibach, and Dow Yeh) are also credited. To fully incorporate his natural surroundings, some of the songs were recorded live in the mountains near the Grande Ronde reservation. Reibach knows how to put his ideas across with content and character. His passages are economical, and he uses his musical notes in a resourceful manner that recognizes the Native American understanding of how to live within limits. Without excesses, Looking Wolf’s “One Heart, One Spirit” is a perfect serving of tone, timing, rhythm and musical phrasing. Aficionados of Native American flute music will be very pleased.

  • A meditative masterpiece!
    author: Northwest Native Music Company

    “Each song on this recording is amazing. Looking Wolf shares his heart through several native flutes with both modern melodies and old, traditional sounds. The originality and musical harmony of this Cd make it a mediative masterpiece.”
