Hmmm. What to say about myself?
I am a recent graduate with a bachelor's degree in music performance and I am taking a year off from school to raise money for a master's degree. I currently have a job at a music store and I am teaching lessons (great on an application, by the way) while searching for grad programs with outstanding teachers. Suggestions are welcome and appreciated!
I enjoy all kinds of music, although I have been really into jazz recently (the Bolling 'Suite for flute and piano' is so much fun!)
I love playing flute (obviously) but I would love to learn other instruments. I have rudimentary knowledge of the clarinet, sax, oboe, and trumpet but I wouldn't claim any real capability. I've always wanted to play a stringed instrument; perhaps the cello (although that may be too big for my small stature). I can also play the piano, but I am not proficient by any means. I do play the piccolo and the alto flute, though I don't particularly enjoy playing piccolo.
I also play Chinese Dizi (bamboo) flutes, though not as much as I would like to now. I used to play for a small community Chinese orchestra but I couldn't keep with it when I started teaching lessons. Also, translating the music was a little difficult since I don't speak or read Chinese. If you've never seen music written that way, you should really give it a look. It's very interesting!
I also play native american flutes, though I'm not very good at it yet. I really like the double barreled flutes. They are so pretty and they sound beautiful!
