About Fluteworks - from their director

Whenever I hear renditions of "The Lion King", "Beethoven Symphony No. 5", and particularly "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye", I will always remember these six lovely young ladies. Starting in the middle of their eighth grade year we formed "Fluteworks", a flute choir made up of Delano's best and brightest. At first, our group only had four members (Catherine, Adoracion, Odessa, and Eileen). Our first performance was entertainment for a Kiwanis Builder's Club installation back in February of 1995. Upon completion of this performance, it was obvious that these ladies wanted to continue their musical skills as a special group. The other two members (Leslie and Jannie) joined us a short time later and then the journey began.

The early days of Fluteworks

As the members of Fluteworks entered high school, I presented them with a real challenge. I wrote out a very difficult arrangement of songs from Disney's "Lion King" which they practiced, and practiced, and practiced! I think every member of the group will admit that their flute playing skills improved tremendously after having completed such a difficult piece, and to this day it is probably the hardest song they have ever attempted!

Now that the members of Fluteworks have left high school to pursue their dreams, I would like to personally wish them all the best and to say thanks. This group of talented young musicians has truly been a highlight of my teaching career. Thanks for the ride, ladies.
