Answer to Question 1

 Synthesizer and Native-American flute. Note Figure 2.16, p. 85, in Worlds of Music. This instrument is basically a tube through which the flutist blows air and produces different pitches by covering different holes in the tube with his fingers. By comparison, the familiar metal flute from the Western music-culture has finger holes covered by keypads, and its tone is created by blowing across a hole in the end of the flute.

Answer to Question 2

 This movement probably began in the 1970s in Oklahoma with Doc Tate Nevaquaya's first commercial recording.
 R. Carlos Nakai, a Navajo, is renowned for his improvisatory melodies played on the Native-American flute, often accompanied by musical synthesizer or orchestra.
 This music has gained worldwide popularity and many awards.

Answer to Question 3

 An Anishinaabe (Ojibwa) singer, songmaker, Grass dancer, and educator who participated in powwows from an early age
 Founder of the Northern Wind Singers (Straight Up)
 Spoke Ojibwa at home growing up
