Flutist

Special Events
Weddings, Receptions, Banquets, and more!

The flute is a beautiful, elegant instrument that adds a touch of uniqueness to any event. It works well in a solo setting, but also blends wonderfully with any combination of instruments. I would love to work with you to make your event memorable, special, and unique!
