Taking the Piccolo to New Heights
Since about 1980, there has been a movement to promote the piccolo as a solo instrument. It has been a real joy for me to be a part of this movement and I welcome anyone interested in joining.
News and Notes
May 2023
During the long 2 years of lockdown, I recorded many flute ensemble pieces from trios to full blown flute choirs. I posted them on Facebook and set up a YouTube channel to archive some of my favorites so you can go listen to them without having to shuffle through my facebook page. Go to YouTube and type in my name. Since I really enjoy doing these recordings, I will continue but not at the pace I kept during lockdown as life returns to "normal".
