Northern Westchester Flutes (NWF)
Northern Westchester Flutes is an ensemble of professional flutists from the area just north of New York City, founded in 2001. Performing at the 2015 National Flute Association (NFA) convention in Washington, D.C. as a featured group honoring Alexander Murray, we accompanied Robert Dick in his composition, "Air Alight". We previously performed at the 2009 NFA convention in New York City.
Using four members of the flute family (piccolo, C flute, alto flute, and bass flute), NWF performs an exciting repertoire spanning the centuries from the Renaissance to the present, including transcriptions and original compositions. The sound of an all-flute 'choir', with as many as eleven flutists playing simultaneously, is both beautiful and unique. There are six core members of the group, each with extensive performance experience.
The musical selections from NWF's vast repertoire are custom tailored specifically to each function at which the Northern Westchester Flutes performs. Concerts may also include smaller flute ensembles such as trios or quartets. The group enthusiastically contributes community service efforts with a myriad of concerts at retirement centers, churches, public libraries, and other events and private functions.
Northern Westchester Flutes have been featured on PC-TV's "Arts In Westchester" and were special guests at the DIANNE SPITALNY and TCO WINDS concert at the Chappaqua Library Auditorium. Other venues include: the Tarrytown Public Library, Hendrick Hudson Free Library, Ossining Public Library and others throughout Westchester Country.
