Flute and Piccolo Performance

Amy Taylor is an accomplished flute and piccolo player with a sensitive, poetic sound. She graduated magna cum laude from the University of North Texas with a Bachelors in Music, and earned her Masters in Music from Northwestern University.

Amy is the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra piccolo player for the 2008-2009 season. She has also performed this year with the Chicago Symphony, Lyric Opera of Chicago, the Minnesota Orchestra, Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, and the Honolulu Symphony.

In 2007 Amy was selected to perform the part of the Red Maiden in a production of The Stone Horse with cellist YoYo Ma, the Silk Road Ensemble, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. She also participated in MusiCorps, a music education and advocacy program sponsored by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra that promotes music awareness and appreciation.

Fans of the hit TV series Lost can catch her performance with the Honolulu Symphony on the Season IV Lost DVD, which will be available in December 2008.

Chicago Symphony Orchestra Asia Tour

In February 2009, Amy will join the CSO as it goes on tour in Asia for three weeks. The orchestra has performances scheduled in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing.

A patient, disciplined, caring instructor, she was mentored by just such teachers herself: Southern Methodist University Professor Claire Johnson, Dallas Opera First Flutist Helen Blackburn, UNT Professor Terri Sundberg, and Chicago Symphony flute legend Walfrid Kujala.

She provides instructions for flute and piccolo students of all ages and at all levels.
