Interview with musician Paul Horn

We first heard Paul Horn’s album ‘Inside the Taj Mahal’ in 1970 and it blew us away. Then in 1977, Dean Evenson was invited to interview Paul Horn on video at the Boulder Colorado public library. This was quite an honor for Dean who had been playing flute since he was 11 years old; it was another two years before we founded Soundings of the Planet. In this interview, Dean asks Paul about his musical influences and what genre his music fits in. Paul speaks of the improvisational aspects of jazz and the unique kind of music he creates. He discusses his meditation practice and goes into depth about studying at Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram in India. He was doing a retreat there when the Beatles arrived! Paul also discovered that he (more than his flute) is the main instrument. He discusses how the music he creates can be helpful in the healing process although he doesn’t call it ‘healing’. When we came across this interview in our video archive, we knew we also wanted to share it as a podcast. Be sure to listen to Dean’s final question which he asks with his silver flute. You can also watch the video on our Soundings Mindful Media YouTube channel.
