THE LEGENDARY MRS. FORD™️: “Have you seen [state high school music competition]’s score sheets?”
ME: “At [ibid], did you get star power for note streaks? When you had a good score multiplier, could you lift the end of your flute for double-points?”
TLMF™️: “… it’s called a ‘credenza’ …”

After I wrote a review of a flute duet recital & friended the 2 flautists on Facebook, FB started showing me every person who hold a flute in their profile pic. So I sent so many friend requests, FB throttled my friending.
Flute FB is a thing. But is there a #Flutesky feed?
Must have more flutes!
Cover of the sheet music book titled Selected Duets for Flute, Volume I (Easy–Medium), compiled and edited by H. Voxman. The book is part of the Rubank Educational Library, No. 177, and published by Rubank/Hal Leonard. The background is yellow with black text and decorative lines.
In case anyone's curious, here's one of the flute duet collections we go through when we get together. If anyone can recommend another flute duet collection around the same level (easy-medium -- easy for us to sightread without practising in advance 😉), please let me know! #FluteSky
If my notes keep breaking down is that a sign that my pads need replacing or is it player error? #FluteSky
Hey bsky, I want to try if learning the flute is something for me. Any decent budget beginner Flute that anyone might recommend? Is there a #flutesky or something tag maybe?
It’s here! 🦆🪈🎶
(it's an oboe)

Decided to try and learn oboe.
Wish me luck.
(Any fellow band dorks with tips for flute-to-oboe transition, pls drop ‘em on me)

I did a tiny before and after today. I brought this beautiful sterling silver alto flute headjoint back to life ✨ Peep both clips! #flutesky
My flute choir is performing this piece this semester. There will be so many tears, but I am so proud to be part of this in the face of so much hate right now. #flutesky youtu.be/6GOl9kqPqRs?...
Decided it’s finally time I learn how to produce a proper alveolar trill so I can stop faking flutter tonguing, which means I’m walking around in public making the weirdest growling and purring Chewbacca noises 🐦🐦 #flutesky
Saturday morning fun.
The kid demanded I play for him, then immediately abandoned his carrots and ran off.
Oh well. Couch practice time 😅 #flutesky
Flute choir rehearsals start back up tonight but I’m not going because it’s our anniversary. I’m actually kinda sad though because I’m ready to get playing again. #flutesky
Today I went to the Iowa state capitol to speak with legislators and ask that they continue funding fine arts education in the state. My conversations were a mixed bag, but many thanks to Heather Matson for being my last meeting of the day and ending it on such a positive note. #flutesky
Wearing my AirPods with the metronome playing in them might be the key for me #FluteSky
I really thought I was gonna buy the inline G Elite we still have in stock, but turns out I’m gonna put a 14k gold headjoint on my 401 instead because why tf not. #FluteSky
Pick up my flute again, play in makeup and go to at least one Caribbean carnival #FluteSky #MusicianSky #DancerSky #CaribbeanSky #MuaSky
I have been so sick for the past week and am finally coming out of it, just in time to play a bunch of flutes at work then spend all weekend playing my flutes. Could be worse. #flutesky
I’m in the market for my forever flute (from the maker I work for - I’ve been brand loyal since before I started)
Telling my boss about it this AM - she says, oh, why don’t you try that really nice older soldered tone hole model that’s been sitting?
Turns out I’m in love with it. Ope. #flutesky
Well, 1 of 2 gigs this weekend was unfortunately cancelled, but perhaps that’s for the best with this ice mess. Looking forward to playing and going for wine and cheese with my fellow musicians afterwards tomorrow. #flutesky
I'm supposed to be practicing. #FluteSky
I’m playing low D more consistently 🙌🏾 #FluteSky
I’m not posting the bigger tattoo because it’s the equivalent of doxxing myself but here’s the bonus piece I picked up. Positioned so it won’t touch my flutes when I play them. #flutesky
(Ignore my toddler’s beach ball, this thing will not disappear)
I’ve got a very expensive flute on my desk that I am planning to buy (play them for work regularly), but I’m too polite to really test it out at home because I want to put ALL THE POWER through it and really make it sing. And it sounds like 💩 if I don’t.
I hate apartment life. #flutesky
For any other fluties, Flute World has a good sheet music sale going right now - up to 50% off if you get 5 select pieces! Please believe I could not pass it up. #flutesky
