The Videoclip “Call Of The Canyons” was filmed at Zion Canyon and at a mysterious place known for its sliding sunsets, moon maps, and his petroglyphs. The Parowan Gap. He is culturally significant based on a collection of stories from early Native American tribes who lived here. Here we found a huge “gallery” of Native American rock art. It was a spiritual experience to be out here.
“standing on the sacred ground, it was my native heart I found…”

“The Call Of The Canyons is one of the first Native American flute works that shows with great clarity the magic and mystery that surrounded the tribes of the American Southwest. Without breaking that charm, Wolfsheart joins avant-gardist sounds with the sound expressive of the Native Indian flutes, an alliance that initially may not seem wise, but the result is more than perfect. The Call Of The Canyons is a recommeded work!”… Reviewsnewage, Spanien 2010
“This album is breathtaking! I feel like I’m soaring over the Grand Canyon or hoofing a sacred path. Wolfsheart has given us a “must have” collection of songs here… that flow like a high wind.. creating an atmosphere of peace, strength, and endless horizon.”
Pagan Poet Radio, US 2010
“The music on the album is a wonderful blend of ancient and modern as wood flutes and earthy drums blend with synthesizers and occasional electronic percussion. The keyboard string section gives a cinematic air and sense of drama and majesty for the flute to glide on like a hawk drifting on updrafts above the canyon. While some songs are propelled by earthy rhythms, others are soulfully meditative. All in all, a deeply felt tribute to a sacred space”…Awareness Magazine, US 2011
