PLAYLISTS
I created or found playlists of great recordings for you. Only by listening to master musicians can we know what we want to sound like on our own instrument. And only by listening to great bands or orchestras can we know what we want our band to sound like. I hope that hearing these great musicians will inspire you like they inspire me.
Know that these playlists are just a starting place. There is so much more out there. For example, for the Flute, there are over 30 albums by James Galway on Spotify, and you would benefit from listening to all of them. Start here, then go exploring...
