Flutist Lindsey Goodman and pianist Clare Longendyke bring several contemporary chamber works to life with In the Company of Music. From evocative miniatures to pensive, multi-movement works, this program showcases the breadth of settings in which the flute shines. The pieces are remarkably diverse, and so are the inspirations behind them, from major events in human history to pure musical curiosity.
