R Carlos Nakai..I saw him in concert last Saturday. 100% pure improvisation between Nakai, the great flutist, and Will Clipman on percussion. Between them they've been nominated for 13 grammys. What a amazing concert experience.

Coincidentally I just saw the documentary "Lost Sparrow" with Nakai as the composer. Had never heard of him until your post and then I see this documentary shortly thereafter.
