On August 20th, 1994, a white buffalo calf aptly named "Miracle" was born on Dave and Valerie Heider's farm near Janesville, Wisconsin.  The white buffalo - a genetic rarity - holds an honored place among Native American tribes that once depended on bison.  It is believed that a mythic woman was transformed into a white buffalo after aiding the tribe during a famine, and that she will reappear as a sign of great change and spiritual healing.  An elder still keeps her sacred gift, a ceremonial pipe.  

Performance Notes
The notated music for the tape line(s) is that of pitched drums.  All other sounds are indicated, in parenthesis, above the electronics line.  The flute should be processed with a “wet” (canyon or large hall) reverb that is similar to the reverb used for the electronics.
