Hey folks,

I'd love to know what flute player inspires you in your own playing and learning? What do you LOVE about their playing in particular?!

He plays a kind of Brasilian music named Choro, with very fast passages that requires a lot of dexterity..

There's so much we can learn from watching and listening to flute players and flute music of wide ranging genres.
Following my original post I thought I"d collect some of my favourite flute players in the article below. I must admit, I've gotten lost in Youtube for a few hours discovering some of these amazing players!
