My article, “Building from the Bones”, was published in 2024 in Resonate Magazine (Australian Music Centre). I write about Caballito Negro (my flute and percussion duo), making new music in the American geo-political climate, with backstories to our Bare White Bones audio/video release (Wally Gunn is the composer).

Low Flutes in the Time of Locusts – A three part series

When times are rough, there’s not only anxiety and paralysis, but also an urge to regenerate how we live, think and feel. It’s a little bit like driving with the brakes on. In this three-part series of articles (published in Greater Portland Flute Society in 2021) I’m offering ideas and sources for you to reframe your low flute playing, whether you are creating, curating, or just new to it all. Take your time to explore with zero pressure and maximum curiosity. If the idea of expanding your work makes you tense and tired (yes, because the world is cuckoo), just grab a pillow. Scream into it. You are now ready to begin.
