ISBN 9790302121732.Mnicakmun for Solo Flute and Wind Ensemble by William Linthicum-Blackhorse. Mnicakmun is a composition for solo flute and wind ensemblein three sections (Mnicásniyanyanla, Mnicáluza, Mióhuta). From the composer: 'Mnicakmun, or 'Sounds of Water,' began as a project for my composition studio class at Texas Tech University. The first movement was written with the total absence of classical triadic harmony. As I continued to write the piece, I began to break from the strict rules that I set for myself and developed what I believe is a beautiful representation of the different emotions a person experiences in life, using water as the imagery. The title was a last minute realization that I had written the piece with the Lakota Sioux native flute in mind, so I found it suiting to name the piece and its movements in the Lakota language. The word Mnicakmun is both the description and terminology for the sound that water makes when moving over a rocky surface.'.
