BLUE MOUNTAIN ENSEMBLE
The
Blue Mountain Ensemble
is a group
formed after many years of performing with (and
initially, meeting!) my husband, bassoonist Michael
Burns. We are currently managed by the Hudson Brown
Agency and information on booking a performance, class,
or workshop is available from them or by contacting me
directly. Our group bio is below, and the HBA site is:

Blue
Mountain performs music
from diverse style periods written for flute, bassoon, and
piano, but also seeks existing repertoire that adapts well
to the ensemble. Blue Mountain actively works to explore
and develop new works that include the core members plus
other instruments or voices – particularly percussion.
Our members have performed as artist-teachers throughout
the United States and Europe, and in Canada, Australia, New
Zealand, and China. Our name is taken from exceptionally
beautiful and diverse natural areas in Florida, Australia,
and North Carolina that hold special significance for the
members, with each of these places carrying the name
Blue Mountain.
Programming mirrors the
contrasting environments of these areas including serene,
young, old, laid-back, joyful, and
rugged.
