I had the great opportunity to perform twice on the New Breathe stage this year and It is really a fun time to play for people who love these flutes as much as I do. I could not stay for the award ceremony however to my delight and surprize , I opened an email when I arrived home informing me that I had been chosen as the best performer on the New Breathe Stage for Flute Quest 2010. What a thrill and an honor and I thank everyone who voted for me.

The flute quest people truly do a great job of organizing this event. Thanks for making it happen so well.

At flute quest the attendees vote for their favorite booth and their favorite performer on the new breath stage.

The winner of the best booth was Dennis Lombard of Mountain Flutes. I would love to have been their for the award ceremony to see the look on Dennis's face when the announcement was made.  Congratulations Dennis --- I am really happy for you.

Here I am after a whirlwind afternoon at flute quest. I have had a chance to check in with the flute makers, bid on silent auction items, drool and lust over some of the wonderful flutes and kick back and listen to some of the great performances from the new breath stage,

Attending flute festivals is like flute heaven for me. I enjoy meeting more flute enthusiasts and hanging out with some of the great people I have met over the years with my flute playing.

 Satruday will be another fun day, I will be playing on the new breath stage and I am very excited about that. Flute festivals are fun.

Tomorrow I will take in the Mary Youngblood concert, but who my friends Joe Young and Ken Kholman are opening for her and I am very excited to see them.
stay tune for updates on my flutequest adventures 2010.
