More About New York Flute Trio Live Performance
Founded during the pandemic, the New York Flute Trio grew from informal outdoor performances for neighbors in Brooklyn into a dynamic chamber ensemble dedicated to showcasing the rich colors and versatility of the flute family.
Featuring piccolo, C flute, alto flute, and bass flute, the Trio presents imaginative programs that blend classical masterworks, contemporary works, and original arrangements.
Praised for their artistry and expressive musicianship, the ensemble has appeared at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall as part of the Association of Classical Musicians and Artists' Passion Through Performance series and continues to delight audiences throughout the New York metropolitan area.
