The Mistral Fanfare - Lots of Excitement!
Dear Flute Lovers,
It's possible that those of you who know me well wonder why I've been so quiet for the past half year.
Well actually I've been making some exciting and joyful noises and working together with truly great musical people.
And you're about to find out all about these projects.
To wit:
Here is a new flute work that is a perfect fanfare!!!
(video):
Mistral for Flute, Cello, Piano Trio by Julia Bowkun
I wanted to present a great piece of fanfare music to introduce my new fall projects here on this blog. (and one of them is offering the sheetmusic to Mistral and other Bowkun works on this blog!)
And do plesae use the comment button if you just LOVE this composer.
The story of her compositions to follow!
(I'll send your happy composer comments on to her!)
And there's even more to come!
I'll tell you the whole story about flute authors and flute composers right here as the weeks unfold.
This musical fanfare is the beginning of even more exciting announcements yet to come!
Lots of excitement.
So stay totally tuned.
Happy days!! :>)

I really enjoyed it! It's beautiful!!
Thankyou so much Olya! We really have fun rehearsing and choosing music, and this particular piece was the favourite for about six concerts in a row.
The audience ADORES it, every time!
What a thrill to play it!
Thanks! Jen :>)
Wonderful work this Jen. I hope Julia Bowkun becomes better known her compositions deserve it.
Great performance as well.

Thanks Matt. You're so kind and so right about that! This truly is unique! And such a toe-tapper! Jen
Love it! And you all look like you're having as much fun playing as your audience did listening! My daughter has just begun in a flute/piano/cello chamber group, and would be thrilled to be able to use something like this...(waiting impatiently for the score....)
Thanks Elizabeth. I just have to finish editing the cello part, and it will just be a matter of a week or two. GREAT! Best, Jen
It is a beautiful piece. Thank you, Jen, so much for all you offer on your blog and your website...your generosity knows no bounds!
Thankyou so much Geri Ann! :>)

Hi Jen, I adore your website and blog, and especially love Bowkun's Mistral! Just wondering where I might obtain the sheet music? I can't seem to find it on your site. Thanks! Laura.
Dear Laura,
Thanks for loving "Mistral". It's one fantastic piece. It will go for sale this summer, and will be announced on my blog. I'm still editing the parts. Almost finished.
Best, Jen
so beautiful! shared it with my friends.
Thankyou! Jen
