Pronounced "Zan-feer", Flutist??

[AstroJade]

I am looking for any info on a flutist by the name of "Zan-feer". I do not know the correct spelling. I think it begins with an "X", but I am not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It's Zamfir.

I don't know if this is where you heard him, but Zamfir was featured on the Kill Bill soundtrack.

Actually, the other night I was awakened by someone playing "The Lonely Shepherd" very loudly on their car stereo. I remembered the song from about 10 years ago, and I wanted to download it, but I couldn't remember the spelling. :blush:

Zamfir is the master of the Pan Flute. All hail Zamfir! He could kick Kenny G's ass.

Wasn't Zamfir another artist who "sold more records than The Beatles". ? Those commercials were classic kitzch.
