Buy Tranquility Hideaway Here If you want to purchase a physical CD, contact me directly at Music@KatEpple.com for a special sale price, $10 + shipping. Here is a description of “Tranquility Hideaway”: This music really can help with falling asleep, sleep, sleep, for adults, children, and babies. After many years of promising to create this music for my friends and fans who are massage therapists, hypnotherapists, meditators, insomniacs, parents of children with ADHD and ADD, teachers, spa professionals, trance workers, hospice professionals, leaders of guided meditation, doulas, animal trainers, and healers, it is finally here. The music is not designed for listening sessions, instead, it is an experience of floating in a calm flute lake while still connected to the Earth by a Native Heart Drum.
I've had the privilege of listening to it and to own a copy, I feel quite honored to have Kat as a collaborative artist in this project and as a friend with such talent and dedication to her craft. Tiité More about Ambassador Kat E. HERE

| October 16, 2009 Ambassador Kat Epple, shared the following thought with the members of Planet Earth 2.0 Facebook group regarding the Facebook Worldwide Artist Search. It was my honor to be appointed as WPMP Artist/Ambassador for the United States in 2006. Since that time, I have enjoyed meeting the other WPMP Artist/Ambassadors in person and online. As WPMP Ambassadors, we all strive to unite the world in a common vision of world peace, environmental stewardship, world health, global cooperation and tolerance. Each artist brings to the project, his or her own unique art, cultural perspective, and individual approach for promoting the concept of peace and harmony. Brilliant artist Tiité, created this innovative global work of art which embraces a vision of global peace, and unites a network of prominent international artists who are all committed to working towards peace. As this matrix of artists, countries, and peace markers continues to grow, I believe that it will help to move the world closer to peace, health and benevolence. Tiité |

| January 6, 2009 WPMP USA artist Ambassador to Kat Epple attended the memorial services for maestro Robert Rauschenberg in New York City on October 29, 2008. Kat shares with us the story of the encounter with former president Clinton in her own words.
"I had the honor to be invited to perform on flute for the memorial
service for renowned artist, my friend, Robert Rauschenberg in New York
City. The event took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Egyptian
Temple of Dendur. As I sat in the "reserved for presenters" row, a tall man
walked up to the chair next to me and asked, "May I sit here?" (since I had
placed my flute on that chair). I looked up, and it was former President
Bill Clinton! He sat on an aisle seat next to me throughout the event. We
talked about many things including my flute collection, his saxophone
collection, his presidential library, the election, art, music, Hillary, and
our mutual friend, Bob Rauschenberg. We both had funny stories to tell each
other about Bob. We also spoke about peace, and I even had a chance to
mention the Worldwide Peace Marker Project! Thank you Kat, Maestro Robert Rauschenberg will remain a source for inspiration for all of us and will be sorely missed. Tiité |

| WPMP Ambassador Kat Epple performs at the Light Center
in Black Mountain Ambassador Epple takes her collection of flutes from around the world to delight the attending audience with the magic of her music and her commitment to peace.
August 11, 2008 following are a few images from Kat's North Carolina visit at the light center and a narrative in her own words. I had a GREAT time in North Carolina!! Hot summer days enhanced by fresh, juicy, cool peaches and fresh white corn sold by charming locals at a roadside produce stand. I enjoyed glimpses of a crystal clear river as it trickled, pooled, and thundered alongside the winding mountain road. Flowers, hummingbirds, and butterflies were inspiring. Black Mountain Light Center was an interesting concert venue, far away from anything but mountains and wilderness. You couldn't hear ANY traffic noise..... The dome had very interesting acoustics. It had a complex slap back that created a rhythm when I played flute, and the echo was different depending on where I stood in the dome. The dome dictated the tempo and rhythm of the music, if I didn't abide by that, then the dome would fight with the music. I also recorded a lot of very cool music with the guys. They live in a beautiful house on a mountainside in Hendersonville, NC.
Together, we, Peter, James, Nathan and Miko created a brand new sound which will be featured on our upcoming album, and at our concert in Lake Lure in October. Kat Epple
