Alamogordo, NM — Music lovers and wellness seekers in the Tularosa Basin have a special treat coming this month. Renowned local flutist Samuel Pollack returns to Otero Artspace for an evening of immersive, multicultural flute music in his signature “Temple of Wind” experience on Monday, May 27, at 7:00 PM.
Pollack, an Alamogordo native and traveling professional musician, has spent over 15 years collecting and mastering rare wind instruments from around the world. His performances blend ambient soundscapes, nature-inspired reverbs, and improvisational melodies drawn from diverse cultural traditions — creating a meditative “sound journey” that promotes relaxation, healing, and connection to the earth and spirit.
“I do these events to provide my hometown with a musical and peaceful experience that is truly unique,” Pollack shared in a previous interviewwith AlamogordoTownNews.org . “This new age profession is something I have been doing for years now… Sharing my love for the flute and wind instruments is one of my highest joys. To share sounds that most people don’t or won’t ever hear in person.”
His inspirations draw from ambient music, video game and film soundtracks (such as Lord of the Rings and Legend of Zelda), and the work of other sound healing practitioners. Pollack’s “Temple of Wind” events have become popular at venues like Trinity Turtle Healing Labyrinth Park, where audiences gather for sunset performances filled with harmonious, transcendent flute melodies.
Otero Artspace, located at 12th and Indiana in Alamogordo, provides the perfect intimate setting for this performance. Attendees can expect a relaxing evening of live music designed for contemplation and renewal.
