by Katja Pitelina As flutists, we have a repertoire of compositions spanning over 300 years, from the first publication of Michel de la Barre suites for flute and BC (1710) to the present day.

By Karen Kevra My flute has been a constant companion since I was 9 years old. It’s introduced me to some of the most important people in my life, seen me through every major life event, and most recently…a pandemic.

Nurturing resilient, pain-free, and confident musicians by Lea Pearson INTRODUCTION It’s no secret that we are in a time of rapid change.

These communities have always been essential in…
by Laura Chislett In 2022 I had the opportunity to travel solo to Europe which I hadn’t done for many a year. I visited some of the places where I had lived, worked or studied years before. A highlight was visiting Lucerne, during Festival time, where I caught up with Phoebe Bognar, who was playing in the Lucerne Festival…
