Oregon Flute Store Catalog > Native American Style Flutes > Cane, Bamboo and Solid Bore Flutes by James Gilliland Cane, Bamboo and Solid Bore Flutes by James Gilliland
James R. Gilliland, a Native American artist and flute maker for 15 + years from the hills of North Alabama retired from the Space Shuttle Program. He uses his engineering skills and Native American heart to create a flute that sings. One of his river cane flutes played on the International Space Station in 2002, and is now on display in the Smithsonian National Native American Museum in Washington, DC. He was also commissioned by Dr. Kathleen Joyce-Grendahl in 2004 to make the River Cane Flutes for the movie, The New World. James is a registered Native American of Cherokee/Creek heritage. He is passing on his cultural tradition of flute making to his grandchildren, Wayne, Wesley and Melissa who work with him. |

"I received the order today, and would like to thank you for such fast and accurate service.
I would also like to let you know that your efforts in packaging make a difference. When I received the box, it had been partially crushed and the styrofoam peanuts were falling out of what was left of the box's endflap. I was expecting a disaster. However...due to the care that was shown when the flute was packaged, it was actually unharmed. With this type of customer service, I feel it would be foolish to look any place else for my flutemaking supplies. May I once again offer my sincere thanks for the quality of your products and service."
~John C. "Pete" Glesser
