As a source of originality, we take pride in having the entire flute industry benefit from the ripple effect of Drelinger's research and development, establishing a standard of headjoint excellence. We now commemorate the beginning of Delinger's fifth decade in business, with the introduction of a new breakthrough accessory named PerfecTite™, destined to benefit all flutists. Simply stated, PerfecTite eliminates inherent nano air leaks, originating from the space between the headjoint tenon and flute body barrel, which until now, had been an unresolved design issue with modern metal flutes. Playing is believing. To play test PerfecTite, we have evening appointment slots for demo sessions at the Marriott from August 1st through August 4th. To schedule your demo, please stop by booth 205 during NFA exhibit hours. Innovation In Perpetuum™ © 2019 Drelinger. All rights reserved. All rights © 2019 Drelinger. FROM THE PRESIDENT Welcome to the 47th Annual National Flute Association Convention! I am glad you are here. Program Chair Rebecca Johnson and Assistant Program Chair Kate Henry have planned a fabulous four days of artistry and wonder! This ear’sy convention celebrates the many ways that we are transformed by music. Whether it is your first convention or your 47th, I hope you will be inspired to Joanna Bassett seek new challenges, make new friends, and share your gifts with others. The flute world is ever so connected, and when you leave, I hope you will have woven a few more threads in that web of flute friendship. I am grateful to our NFA staff members for their work at pulling all of the details together— in the same year that they oversaw development of a new website and database! All of their efforts are geared toward providing you with the best member experience possible. The board of directors and I will be spending much of our time this week discussing visioning and strategic planning, so I invite you to give us your new ideas when you see us. Our association’s greatest strength is in its members, including the hundreds of volunteers who work year-round to make these four days possible. Competition coordinators, judges, committee chairs and members, board members, and other appointees keep our organization rolling. Our convention interns and volunteers will be running around behind the scenes taking care of hundreds of details. Please join me in showing our volunteers your appreciation. To our performers, presenters, composers: I surround you with heartfelt warmth and appreciation. You never know whose life you are going to change, though you can be sure you will make a difference! As you peruse this program book for concerts, workshops, and participatory events, remember to leave time to visit the exhibits. An important feature of our conventions, the Exhibit Hall showcases the latest flutes and accessories from all over the world—an incredible opportunity to see all of them under one roof. This is your chance to meet flutemakers and those who can answer your questions in person. Many of our commercial members provide additional sponsorship to support the conventions, and I am grateful for their generosity. Everyone is invited to the Myrna Brown Dine-Around on Thursday evening; join us by gathering at the registration desk with others for a dinner within walking distance. Tickets for Friday’s Flute Lovers’ Lunch with guest speaker Nancy Toff and Saturday’s Food for the Day’s Journey Breakfast with Marianne Gedigian are available at the registration desk until Thursday noon and Friday noon, respectively. I would love to have you join us to honor 2019 Lifetime Achievement Award recipients Emerson DeFord and Susan Milan at the Gala Awards Dinner on Saturday; tickets benefit the general endowment fund and are available until Friday noon. All attendees are welcome to meet and greet at a reception on Saturday before the awards dinner. Thank you for whatever courage, resourcefulness, and planning it took you to attend— I’m hoping that you will be very glad you did! I look forward to seeing you at the Annual Meeting on Thursday morning at 9 a.m., and throughout the week. Enjoy the artistry and camaraderie. —Joanna Bassett 47TH annual national flute association convention, salt lake city, 2019 11 #NFAFlute2019 nfaonline.org MAKE YOUR MUSIC MATTER Longy is unlike any other conservatory — our mission is to prepare musicians to make a difference in the world.
