Song of Peace - by Ina Shin - for piri, flute, and piano
In 2017 I had the opportunity to perform in a recital with piri player Dr. Jiyoon Kim. I'd never heard a piri before but enjoyed working with Dr. Kim and learning about a variety of traditional Korean woodwind instruments. Dr. Jiyoon Kim is a Certified Apprentice of Korean National Intangible Cultural Heritage 46 Piri Jeongak & Daechwita, and the first Ph.D. in the field of Piri, a Korean traditional woodwind instrument. |

Tips for Buying a Flute
Several years ago I took the DSU Flute Ensemble on tour, and we stopped at a couple of music stores. I picked up a random flute to try, and the next thing I knew, this was on YouTube. Of course, I also play full range scales, some lyrical pieces, and I use a tuner when trying new flutes! |
Flute Ensemble + Added Instrumentation
I like to vary the tone colors of the flute ensemble by adding other instruments. In this performance of "Tango" from Three Southern Pieces by Russell Howland, we didn't have a harp or bass clarinet (called for in the score), but we did have marimba and cello! Special thanks to: Beth Callentine, Erin Kessler, Erica Margo, Danielle Parris, Bill Schultze, Suzie Strickler, and Bethany Walrad, flutes Meghan Hovick and Rachel Redmond, marimbas; Emily Pew, cello; Matthew Shi, bass; and Dan Adams, percussion. |
