About This Piece
The music of duo “Red Tail Chasing Hawks” (Calvin Standing Bear and James Torres) can be heard while walking over the Concourse A passenger bridge. A 43-minute long series of compositions, specifically written for the airport and the Spirit of the People project, includes Native American chanting, drumming and flute playing in both traditional and contemporary styles.
